I have a hard time getting my 06 xA to go into first, third, and fifth and when i go to shift fast it feels like theres no second gear there any explanation clutch tranny clave cylinder anything would help

 

how many miles are on the car

 

about 81000

 

have to check out the transmission fluid,has it been changed

 

probably not ive had it since 57000 so ill look into that and maybe get it changed

 

yea,cause i knew on my tc,when i was using stock tranny fluid,even though i had the clutch fully engage it was very hard to get into gears and what not,i thought maybe it was the clutch,but someone mention change the tranny fluid to aftermarket of your choice,and should be alot easier going into gears...

if your clutch was bad,people say,youll know it....there will be slipping and stuff..

But yea either check or change the tranny fluid....

 

upgrade to synthetics it usually cure a notchy shifter

 

i think its my shift cable got melted so if yo can help me find one id appreciate it

 

the cables are thick metal rods, not wire

 

now, it is very possible (has happened to me) that your shift "cables" came out of their seats, under the console.. if you pull out the console, above the shifter, you will see 2 seats where the cables go from the shifter up through the cab and down to the tranny. mine had popped out, due to furious shifting when some somma_____ cut me off...
Long story short, for 2 days i was wondering why i had soooo much play in the shifts, but intermittent engagement.. pulled the console out, saw the problem, pushed them back down into their seats, and sprayed some lithium grease in the sleeves, and have been good to go ever since

hope this helps

 

Redline MT90 is your friend

 

well the cable under the hood by the header started ripping and i already checked the console shift cables

 

ohh, thats not good

 

When I put on my header I had to use some cable ties to hold the shift cables away from it. It's because most headers delete the OEM heat shield. Guess you'll need a new cable

 

yeah im looking for one right now but for some reason i doubt thats the problem cause i put the stock header on and zip tied it away and it was like that before and it shifted fine i think it may still be the clutch
