the clutch disconnects the gearbox from the driveshaft so that when u change gears it doesnt instantly stop the car. it is also used when u stop at a traffic light or something cause it disconects the engine from the gear box so the engine can keep running without putting the car into netrel
all depends on your engine and running gear and if it's a #'s matching car.
If would not be bad for a car engine to shift from third to second gear if you are traveling at 30mph.
When the shifting linkage is disconnected the car will appear to go into gear but not move. The car will not move when the transmission fluid is low.
Change the gearbox oil and see if that helps. If it doesnt it will be the gear selection sensor.
If it's a newer model car it could be neutral safety switch or torque convert lock out switch. Is your check engine light on?
No.
the new cars gear will not move unless the car is running
If the wheels turns to the right by itself with the engine running the steering gear or rack and pinion has failed.
A car that is stopped with the engine running.
You start the engine in neutral.
Because when the engine is sitting there not warmed up with any fluids running through the components, and suddenly it gets put into gear, it stalls to send a warning that the engine is still cold..always warm up a vehicle when the weather is cold! ALWAYS! even a new car, if its cold you must let the car work itself into driving conditions....try running a mile with absolutely no liquid running through you, see how many times YOU stall..
