i had the same problem for the last couple of weeks its killing me. and also sometimes in the morning my gears dont really want to go in like if i want to reverse its just not going in and same as gear one, but in the afternoon this problem isnt really there does anyone no how i can fix that?
ps. sorry for the hi-jackin EG5[KRT]
I had my g/box oil changed to honda MTF. it still crunch from 2nd -> 3rd at high revs. however, if i double clutch from 2nd -> 3rd. it doesn't crunch at all. (it doesn't crunch before the oil change if i double clutch).
should i take it to repair? or should i wait until it get worse?
how much roughly would that cost to change all the syncros?
Let it fall back into neutral, clutch out, clutch in and try again. Should work.Quote:

As for everyone crunching their gears. I don't want to sound like i'm insulting anybody's driving, but the most common problem is just being too hasty with your left foot. Make sure you've finished shifting the gear stick before you release the clutch. Try to go extra slow, even leaving a short pause between actions JUST to make sure.
Also, make sure you're pressing the clutch all the way in.
yeah i have this same prob.. it just came up recently.. i was in 1st.. i gave it a feng. slamed it into 2nd
and ill i heard was CRUNNNNNNNNNNCCHHHHHHHHHhh.. then 2nd gear i took it up to 6,000rpm.. and slamed it into 3rd and it only had a littel crunch..
man tell you the truth . my heart sunk right then n there =(
how much is for fixing the syncro's? estimate
Gday,
Yep same problem i crunch from 2nd to 3rd when im shifting at a quick or even moderate speed, only can aviod it by doing it slow, much slower..... :(
Hahaha
i blew up my 1st box, and then i went to "CHARLIES MOTORS" in brisbane, did a new box for me, charged me 1k!! for the one i have now that does these hardcore crunches from 2nd to 3rd. Wouldnt reccomend going to that wanker at all! i went back asking what the *** was going and, he just got strait on the defensive saying it was my problem and he didnt want anything to do with it!!
ouch.. sorry to hear that man..
how much are synchros to replace?
has anyone considered their engine/gearbox mounts before rushing in for a rebuild? this is one of the most common probs for crunching gears, especially if its more than one.
could also be linkage related.
for some reason, if I double clutch from 2nd to 3rd gear it's never crunch. i have never crunch on low revs. but i have to double clutch when it is high revs.
when your shifting at high rpm its usually cos you wanna get going fast so having to double clutch is gonna slow you down.
better to get it sorted than have to work around it.
first thing ppl should do is get gear oil changed. its suprising what a difference it can make. its also suprising how long some ppl go without changing it lol
true, i change mine with every 10,000km!!Quote:

I am thinking of changing the Exedy HD Sport Organic Clutch.
Any comment on that?
