COMMON CAR GEARBOX PROBLEMS:

If your car is showing any of the above symptoms, the gearbox needs repair and maintenance. Some of the reasons for your gearbox not working well can be:

• Leakage- gearbox works smoothly with transmission fluid, lack of which can cause severe damage to the fast rotating components of the gearbox. Damaged fluid pan or a broken seal can cause such leakage, hence repair your gearbox and refill the fluid.
• Worn out a clutch plate- clutch plate helps in an easy shifting of gears and assures smoother drives. If you can observe the grinding sensation after you press the clutch pedal fully, then it is possible that your clutch plates have worn out. Replace the parts to prevent gearbox damage.
• Damaged shift fork- if your gear is slipping and you are unable to keep it on specific gear, it can be a dangerous situation, mostly fatal. The reason behind gear slipping is the damaged shift. If the shift fork is damaged, you will not be able to lock on to the correct gear. So, get your shift fork repaired or replaced.
• Low fluid level- the transmission fluid cools down the heat generated by the friction of the gearbox components. If the level of this fluid is low, the gearbox will generate more heat, and this heat can cause severe damage to the car gearbox.
