SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS

SHIFTING IS DIFFICULT OR GEAR SQUEAL OCCURS WHEN SHIFTING
TO THE 2ND GEAR

Description

INFOID:0000000010980339

• The shift lever shifting is heavy or difficult during driving when the shift lever is shifted from 1st gear to 2nd

gear position or 3rd gear to 2nd gear position.

• Gear squeal occurs during driving when the shift lever is shifted from 1st gear to 2nd gear position or from

3rd gear to 2nd gear position.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000010980340

1.

CHECK SYMPTOM

When the clutch pedal is fully depressed, check whether or not this malfunction occurs. Refer to 

TM-95,

TM-103, "2WD : Inspection"

 (2WD) or 

TM-104, "4WD : Inspection"

 (4WD).

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 4.

NO

>> Adjust the gear oil to the specified level. Refer to 

TM-103, "2WD : Refilling"

 (2WD) or 

TM-104,

"4WD : Refilling"

 (4WD).

4.

CHECK THE SHIFTING OPERATION

Check the gear position that causes the following malfunctions when the shift lever is shifted to each gear
position.
• The shift lever shifting is heavy or difficult.
• Gear squeaks.
In what gear position does the malfunction occur?

All gear positions>>Check the clutch disc and clutch cover, and repair or replace malfunctions, if any. Refer

to 

CL-39, "R9M : Inspection"

.

Specific gear positions>>GO TO 5.

Refer to 

TM-113, "Inspection"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 6.

NO

>> Repair or replace the error-detected parts.

6.

CHECK SYMPTOM AGAIN (1)

When the shift lever is shifted to the 2nd gear position, check that rough touch (rough and scraping feel) can
be felt in all of the following situations.
• Rough touch can only be felt in cold start and it is reduced after warming up.

TM-96

< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >

[6MT: RS6F52A]

SHIFTING IS DIFFICULT OR GEAR SQUEAL OCCURS WHEN SHIFTING TO 

THE 2ND GEAR

• Rough touch occurs in slow shifting and does not occur in quick shifting.
• Rough touch occurs and does not occur depending on the situation.
Does rough touch apply to all situations?

YES

>> • Change the gear oil and fill the gear oil to the lowest limit of the specified level. Refer to 

TM-103,

"2WD : Refilling"

 (2WD) or 

TM-104, "4WD : Refilling"

 (4WD).

NOTE:
When oil level is the lowest limit, viscosity resistance of the gear oil is reduced, resulting in
improvement of the shift lever operability.

NO

>> GO TO 7.

7.

CHECK SYMPTOM AGAIN (2)

When the shift lever is shifted to the 2nd gear position, check that gear squeal (rasping noise is heard) applies
to all of the following situations.
• Gear squeal occurs when cold starting and after warming up.
• Gear squeal occurs when slow shifting and quick shifting.
Does gear squeal apply to all situations?

YES

>> GO TO 8.

NO

>> INSPECTION END.

8.

CHECK THE 2ND BAULK RING CLEARANCE

Check the 2nd baulk ring clearance. Refer to

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END.

NO

>> • Replace the following parts. Refer to 

TM-194, "Disassembly and Assembly"
