Trans not shifting

[Schassiesforlife]

My s13 isn't shifting into 1st or 3rd
2ed gear is kinda tough to get in to and sometimes grinds
Revers grinds when going in to
And when the clutch is all the way down the car still rolls forward
What can this be iv been told it's my syncrodes that went out but iv also been told it's my clutch
Can anyone please help????

Try bleeding your clutch slave

[Schassiesforlife]

I bled the clutch slave and there were no air pockets in the system
What else can it be???

Adjust the push rod? Maybe the spot welds broke on the clutch peddle, (need a picture for reference?).?.

Can you elaborate some more on this sentence please, "And when the clutch is all the way down the car still rolls forward".
I don't see why the car wouldn't role in any direction applicable when the clutch is pressed in.

And when I push the clutch pedal down when I'm in gear it rolls even if I'm on a flat surface and this is the 5th time this has happend every time it's happend iv had to replace the clutch iv also been told that if my motor and trancy mounts are bad it can cause a misalinement idk if that's true or not if just need this problem solved

He needs to adjust his pedal engagement or he needs to bleed the lines more. He's probably not fully disengaging the clutch when he press the pedal down.

My thoughts as well.


OP, how far is the piston on the slave cylinder pushing the shift fork?

[Schassiesforlife]

So I got the tranny out and the clutch is good still
What would happen if the fork is bent would that cause it not to go into gear???

[Schassiesforlife]

Thank you all for your help but come to find out it's a bent shaft :/

These 2 spot welds are broken, it causes the peddle to kick out to the side when trying to press on the peddle.

I borrowed this picture from someone else because I must've deleted mine a while back, and sad to say, this is the best picture that I can find.


What shaft is bent, the input shaft on the trans?

[Schassiesforlife]

[kruked]
