Si@Fiske Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 evening all,just wanting some advice really, basically since saturday, everytime i change into second at high revs i get a nasty crunch putting it into second. ive got some new gear oil which i need to change to but has anyone else experienced this problem? me and rich are abit puzzled, were thinking clutch or some gearing issue into second but only at high revs?!please help as idealy want her sorted for jap show!! cheerssi Quote
starletno1fan Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 sounds like the 2nd gear synchro mine does that aswell. you'll probs find bits of the teeth in the oil maybe? Quote
scutch0 Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 basically how do we drain the oil out and top it up again? i did my old 4efe once but i cant remember how.i have a strong suspicion its the clutch mate. Quote
Rich Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Mine does that aswell, it seems these cars don't like second gear all the others are fine, might just be the synchro as said above. Quote
Guest Enzo Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 yea its a comon trait of starlet geaboxes, fresh oil is a temprorary fix,ther is a bleed nipple ont he bottom side of the box, undo that to drain the oil awaythen the filler is ont he side of the box, fill it up unitl the oil is level with it and spewing out of the side.

Sparky Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Common fault im afraid guys....but as said changing the oil wouldnt do any harm Quote
Idrees Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 My brothers old one did the same, mind doesn't, touch wood! ;) Quote
Tintin_SR Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 My brothers old one did the same, mind doesn't, touch wood! ;)lol give it time Quote
Tintin_SR Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Synco's probebly away, i nearly bought a Glanza with the same problem. The parts you need are only £30-£40 but you need to strip the box RIGHT down ;) oh so its beter off just geting a new box Quote
Si@Fiske Posted September 22, 2007 Author Posted September 22, 2007 cheers guys, im going to drain all the oil now and re-fill, will see what effect it has, does anyone know the exactly how much oil it takes? as ive got 2 litres just dont want to come up short....si Quote
jimjom Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 ;) has made no difference yeah sounds like the synco's worn on the outer edge, only way of fixing it stripping the box!!! Quote
