Ok so i have an sr20det i went and started my car and it well not go into gear out of no where.I basically had to slam it into 1st gear.its making a weired kluncking sound or something like that lol.but 1st is the only gear that is hard to go into.and i can shift perfectley when its off.so i think its the throw out bearing but not forsure and figured i could use some input so lmk what u think.thanx in advanced

 

If you can shift into other gears it most likely is not the throwout bearing. Throwout bearings cause clutch engagement problems, which will affect all gears equally. It sounds like you probably have a synchro problem or a loose/misaligned shift linkage. I'm leaning toward a synchro problem, because a shift linkage problem would tend to affect shifting whether the engine is running or not. Misalignment is misalignment.

Is it easier to get into first if while you're moving at a certain speed, or do you have to be standing still to get it into gear?

Basically, you're looking for a problem that only affects one gear, and only while the engine is running.

 

its easier to get it into gear while im moving but i dont get how a synchro whould fuck up out of no where i was driving the car all day no problems and y would a synchro make a weired noise?but i was thinking throw out cus of the noise and it going away while pressing clutch in. and i also forgot to mention the clutch pedal dosent want to come out sometimes to. thanx for the info

 

hey dude i had the same problem with my honda accord and it was my slave cylinder that went out but i dont know nissans that well so yeah its just a guess

 

yea i was thinking slave could be possible 2 i jus havent got a chance to get under the car and check it out yet.Thanx man

 

no problem

 

is the clutch master cylinder full of fluid?

 

Oh, that puts a different spin on things then. What noise is it making?

 

ttt

 

thanx for the help guys but im jus going ahead and puting a new clutch assembley in that should fix someting
