I have a 95 Celica GT just under 200k. It had problems downshifting before, but I had replaced the gear oil and everything was smooth again. Today I stopped at a light and the car wouldnt shift into first...or second or anything. I turned the car off switched it into first then I was able to get it into second, but it wouldnt go any further or back to first. I had to drive home in second with my hazzard lights on. Luckily I was a mile away from home. The clutch seems like it is still strong. Could this be the pressure plate or something similar?

Well, I got the undercover off so I could get a good idea of what I had to do....everything looks doable, but there are 2 things I know is gonna be a pain in the ass. #1 the rear engine mount I dont see how the hell I can even get a wrench in there. #2 The bearing mount on the passenger side that I need to take remove inorder to take out the passenger side axel..how the hell do I get a wrench in there? Also, I noticed a lot of people said I had to remove the down pipe is this so I can lower the engine because it looks like I have enough clearnace to to remove the transmission from where it is

Just did my clutch 2 weekends ago, solo. The rear mount is the hardest part. Most say to rock the engine, or lift it with a jack. Thats all fine and dandy, but I've never been able to get the right angle. What I do, is lower the whole suspension crossmember about 1 1/2 inches, then jack the engine up. That gives you just enough room to get the mount and crossmember aligned in. Simply just restore the mount center bolt, and tighten the right up.\ What do you mean by trans bearing mount? Just the trans mount? You need a 14mm deepwall to get the mount off. This post has been edited by rave2n: Jan 30, 2012 - 11:25 AM |
