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?

rear main does not look bad. (its the rubber that sits around the holes you bolted your flywheel too)
but its not easy to get to. consider the cost of a new seal now vs a new seal and install when it starts to leak when you make your decision either way good luck. its hard to tell on your flywheel hot deep thode pits are. but there is a lot of material to work with on there take it to a machine shop and ask what they think. remember your flywheel has a step any machine shop worth it's salt should preserve this when they resurface peace -jec This post has been edited by JasonTX: Feb 4, 2012 - 11:54 PM -------------------- JN 3:16
