The clutch and the steering are two mechanical systems that the motorist controls. One, however, is used to getting damaged faster than the other: it is of course the clutch mechanism. With of course the gearbox, which goes with it. Rather frequently, gearshift malfunctions occur on the + str (XXX) +. And even if the clutch is often involved, it happens that we have surprises about the source of the malfunctions. In addition, it sometimes avoids replacing the entire kit. Here are the gearshift malfunctions The most common.
+ str (XXX) +: Impossible to pass one of the speeds
It happens from time to time that one of the speeds does not pass any more. Or only even or odd speeds. Consequently, the clutch is damaged. However this is not necessarily due to the whole 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 also come from the gearbox. You can dismantle it in order to check that no foreign component is blocking it. If the latter is damaged, it will have to be replaced.
Unable to shift gear once the + str (XXX) + engine is running
Unfortunately, this is a fairly recurring problem. Since the engine unit is off, it is possible to shift gears, which means that the gearbox of your + str (XXX) + is in good condition. Once the engine block is running, it is impossible. The problem is with the clutch. In general, it is advisable to replace the entire clutch kit. You can try to take it apart and look at the condition of each of the parts. For information, it is recommended to replace the clutch every 150 km.
+ str (XXX) +: no speed passes
If none of the gears work with the engine off or running, it's really unpleasant. One thing to watch is the wear and tear on your str (XXX) + gearbox. There may be a high probability that the latter is HS. In order to understand where the problem came from, it's quite simple. If you can squeeze the lever into a gear guide, but the gear doesn't pick up, the clutch is probably the problem. If the lever seems stuck and you can't push it, the problem is probably with the gearbox. In both cases, it will most certainly be necessary to replace one or more parts.
