Trouble shooting in GearBox
Location of Gearbox
The manual transmission in front engine and
rear-wheel-drive vehicle is located between
the clutch and the driveshaft.
In a car with a front engine and front-wheel-
drive, the transmission is located between the
clutch and the differential in the transaxle.
Purpose of transmission
• Provides speed and torque conversion.
• Facilitates change of direction of output
shaft for reversing
• Gearbox are used to reduce load on the
engine by manipulating torque and speed.
Manual Transmission
Gear lubricants
Need:
–Lubricate, prevent wear
–Reduce friction
–Protect against rust and corrosion
–Clean & Cool.
Additive:
EP(Extreme-pressure), to increase the load-carrying
capacity.
Examples:
SAE 75W, 75W-80, 80W-90, 85W-95, 90 or 140.
Diagnosis
• Road Test:
– Noise.
– Improper operation.
Trouble-Diagnosis
• Hard shifting into gear
–Gearshift linkage out of adjustment.
–GSL need lubrication.
–Clutch not disengaging
–Excess clutch pedal free play
–Synchronizer tight on shaft splines
–Gear teeth battered
• Transmission sticks in gear:
–Gearshift linkage out of adjustment or disconnected.
–GSL need lubrication.
–Clutch not disengaged.
–Detent ball stuck.
–Synchronizing unit stuck
• Transmission slip out of gear
–Weak lockout spring.
–Bearing or gear worn.
–End play of shaft or gear excessive.
–Synchronizer defect.
–Clutch misalignment.
–Input shaft retainer loose.
–Broken engine mount.
• No power through transmission
–Clutch slipping
–Gear teeth stripped
–Shifting fork broken
–Gear or shaft broken
–Drive key or spline sheared off
• Transmission noisy in neutral
– Gear worn or teeth broken or chipped.
– Bearing worn or dry.
– Input-shaft bearing defect.
– Pilot bushing worn.
– Transmission misaligned with engine.
– Counter shaft worn or broken.
• Transmission noisy in gear:
–Clutch friction disk defective.
–Incorrect or insufficient lubricant.
–Main bearing worn or dry.
–Synchronizers worn or damaged.
–Speedometer gear worn.
• Gear clash during shift
– Synchronizer defective.
– Clutch does not disengaged, pedal free play(incorrect).
– Idle speed excess.
– Pilot bushing binding
– Incorrect lubricants
– GSL out of adjustment
• Transmission noisy in reverse
– Reverse idler gear or bushing worn or damaged.
– Reverse gear or shaft worn or damaged.
– Counter gear worn or damaged.
– Shift mechanism damaged.
• Oil leaks:
– Foaming die to incorrect lubricants
– Oil level too high
– Gasket broken or missing
– Drain plug loose
– Transmission retainer bolt loose
– Drive line yoke worn
– Extension case crake
Service
• Remove shift lever
• Rise the vehicle
• Mark(reinstallation) the rear axle flange and drive shaft.
Remove driveshaft.
• Drain the lubricants from the transmission.
• remove the sensor cable adopter.
• Disconnect the drive shaft.
• Support the engine with jack. Remove the transmission.
• Remove the upper bolt attached the transmission to
the clutch housing and install guide pin(to prevent
clutch damage) in the holes.
• Slide the transmission rearward until the clutch shaft
clears the clutch.
