Gears Get Stuck

[ktl]

Hi guys..

recently just exedy organic clutch and on cold start ups sometimes 1st gear gets stuck. Sometimes stiff trying to pull out of 2nd to go into 3rd. Once its warmed up it doesnt do it as much.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I would check gear box oil first,

If it's dirty, the wrong viscosity or not enough, It will have a two thick oil film for the synchronesh to cut through,

Change that if you have any doubts, to 75w90

Does it have a factory or aftermarket LSD? As that requires different oil

Hope this helps

Thanks, i did top it up as it was running low as just fitted a forged engine in.

But i will try and put fresh oil in. Would halfords own brand do the jobby ?

And its factory gearbox

Thanks

Ok, well it's not going to do any harm changing it, halfords should be ok as long as it's 79w90,

If it doesn't sort it then it can be looked into more but oil is the cheapest option

Sorry to say but this is quite normal with the Exedy clutches. I've heard many stories of other Exedys doing the same, I've had two (Organic and a Paddle) and they both did the same. You just have to blip the throttle a little and it's changes gear fine.

Oh ok, yeh if i alter the revs while its stuck sometimes comes out sometimes not... this is while the clutch is depressed still.

Yep same here, I think it's just something your have to live with I'm afraid. Although it is annoying and sometimes prople will give you funny looks when you blip the thottle!
