help, tranny problems again

By DannyCraQ
- Tue Mar 18, 2008 12:11 am #46550 well i fired up my car today, and it idled fine. heres the problem, when i tried to shift into any gear, nothing. doesnt catch it, it goes into gear but doesnt move the car, i can hear it in the shift linkage but nothing from the car, anyone know anything bout why this would do that? i can start the car with the shifter in first


could it be my clutch pedal not having any pressure? i bled it right, and i can see the clutch release fork moving, but even when i start it in first it doesnt jolt or kick, i didnt wire up the clutch pedal

someone help, im stuck, car turns over, but no gear will move the car. :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

sometimes air bubbles can be stubborn, slamming the pedal to the floor can help to knock them out of the master cylinder.

- Tue Mar 18, 2008 3:53 am #46582 I installed a new clutch over the weekend as well as put in a new rebuilt transmission. I had the same problem. My Problem was I Didn't fully install one of the half shafts into the transmission all the way. When I looked under the car after playing with the axles, saw some fresh oil, then looked under neeth and a half shaft wasn't in all the way. pushed it in some more. Put it back together and she drives like a champ.

I was very releaved when I saw this was the problem. I thought I didn't tighten the pressure plate enough. I hope your problem is as Simple as mine was. :lol:
