hi ppl,
my gearbox wont allow me to select any gears while the car is running, but im able to select gears with the car off
how it happened? well i gave it a bit from standing start (around 5000rpm) and was unable to select 2nd straight away, regretable moment but was curious to see how it went when launched, no noticeable noise at the time
i have rung gearbox shop and its $560 odd to do a clutch change should that be problem
i have done a slave cylinder bleed (yet to do it at master) and visually inspected the pedal box which appears fine (will remove on the weekend) and clutch progressively gets hard to pump (if thats a test for air leak at the booster)
from other posts, selector fork could also be the culprit (broken), perhaps clutch failure
will lack of oil cause something like this (i will check oil level in a few days)?
if anyone has had the same issue, pls post what it turned out to be
either way, it appears to be a gearbox out fix, now contemplating a backyard job or workshop job
btw currently have a single plate nismo clutch that was rebuilt by npc a few moons ago, gearbox was in good condition prior to moment of madness and did not crunch when changing
