The clutch and the steering are the two mechanical systems that the driver controls. However, one is used to getting damaged more quickly than the other: it is of course the clutch device. With in particular the gearbox, which is closely linked. It happens relatively regularly that gearshift problems occur on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is regularly involved, it happens that we are surprised at the source of the problems. In addition, it avoids from time to time changing the complete kit. Here are the gearshift concerns the most usual.speed-pass-more-Toyota-Land-Cruiser-Serie-40

+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds

It happens at times that one of the speeds no longer passes. Or only even or odd speeds. In this case, the clutch is worn. However, this is not inevitably related to the entire clutch kit or gearbox of your + str (XXX) +. It is possible that the problem is with a connecting rod or a rubber that holds it. The problem can still come from the gearbox. It is possible to remove it in order to check that no foreign component is blocking it. If the latter is defective, you must replace it.

Unable to shift gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is running

This is unfortunately a rather frequent problem. Since the engine is off, it is possible to shift gears, which means that the + str (XXX) + gearbox is in good condition. Once the engine is on, it is impossible. The problem must be with the clutch. Often it will be necessary to replace the complete clutch kit. You can always remove it and check the condition of each part. As a reminder, it is advisable to replace the clutch every 150 km.

+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes

If none of the gears shift with the engine off or running, it's really unpleasant. The first thing to check is the condition of your str (XXX) + gearbox. There is a good chance that the latter is out of service. In order to discern where the problem came from it is relatively simple. If you can push the lever into the guide for one gear, but the gear isn't picking up, the clutch is probably the problem. If the lever seems stuck and you can't push it, the problem is most likely with the gearbox. In both cases, you will most likely need to replace one or more parts.
