6 speed manual transmission
6 speed manual transmission
I have a 2004 Coupe with the 6 speed manual transmission. It is my daily driver.
Yesterday, the shift linkage went sloppy and I cannot engage reverse, first or second gears.
I would appreciate anyone with knowledge in this area giving me some pointers, I guess that I am going to have to drop the trans, but is it likely to be external - the shift mechanism, or internal - gear selectors?
No issues prior to this.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Clutch and flywheel, those are expensive on our cars.
How many miles is on yours?
How long they last all depends on the driver.
I have a idea I want to check out that could be better for flywheels.
Re: 6 speed manual transmission
Still have to take out the prop shaft before I get the gearbox out fully. But the link has separated at the point shown by the red arrow. I haven't rushed as I can't get a replacement clutch until Tuesday.
That will be AU$700. May car has done just under 180,000 kms, around 111,000 miles in your money, so not young.
Re: 6 speed manual transmission
the #3 is what I have to modify for my aluminum driveshaft.
Where you pretty aggressive with it, for it to break there?
Isn't that spot inside the Transmission?
Can you do me a favor please.
Since you will have your new clutch, pressure plate and flywheel, can you weigh them for me please?
I have 161,xxx miles on mine, and still strong, better be lol
next, I want to find a aluminum flywheel setup when I change out mine.

It's gonna sound like a F1 engine
I did that once when building a 250 cc Yamaha short track bike, replaced the flywheel with a simple steel plate which I used for DIY electronic ignition.
HOLY WHEEL STANDS Batman !!!!!

Re: 6 speed manual transmission
I have never messed with a dual mass flywheel, but everything I have seen it is reguired to change when changing the clutch.
Aluminum flywheel, will has a steel plate bolted on, and just have to change out the plate and gtg when changing clutches.
if only I could find upgrades to the nsg370 to raise the torque capacity from 272 to 400-450.
then there would probably be more v8's.
ooooooo, so if I put a aluminum flywheel on, I can pick the front tires up off the ground.
ooooooo

location, location...
i have a stiff shifting, particularly on 2nd gear. i heard that the problem could be that the cable has worn out.

Hi Phil,
It is quite easy but many of the screws holding it in place are hidden. There are some in the console storage box under the felt base. To access the others you need to remove the fascia starting with the middle section, you have to remove the climate control ***** and radio for this. You need to do this anyway to remove the gear box. Removing the gear box will give you the best access

Re: 6 speed manual transmission
really, is not that i want to remove the console, just to see the parts and then lube them.
but dont know from where to reach them.
there is a video. see at 9:15. under there is something that looks like a carpet, but not the parts shown in the diagram. i dont see them there.
