9. Cap’n Crunch


If you drive something with a manual transmission (thank you!) and you’re starting to hear a crunching sound while changing gears it can be a symptom of several different problems, ones usually associated with high mileage.

For starters, gear grinding can be indicative of a worn out synchronizer, the transmission component that enables easy shifting from one ratio to another. If these are dilapidated they will not be able to equalize the speeds of the different shafts inside the transmission and the dog clutches will grind. Likewise, a dragging clutch could be the culprit, one that’s not fully disengaging when the pedal is depressed. Both of these issues often require extensive service work to correct.

No worry, the next time you go turn into that corner, one side go bend like my Kleg. Then your mechanic will come and you would know what it is...

Baba I don't think so. Before the dollar palaver, I replaced 'power steering engine' if honda bulldog for less than 20k, and also a carry 2.2 (the money is plus workmanship o). The Problem however, is that you go try before you get your car own gangan. The price should depend on your car model sha.

ayxmania:

Honestly, I don't. But check the autos/car talk section, there are some good auto mechanics there.
Is your car BUG?
VW parts are not that expensive, the guys want to do 'dollar is expensive' for you ni.

With a twist of the key or poke of its start button your vehicle’s engine should fire up with the urgency of a physician responding to a code blue.

Of course it should also idle as smoothly as a sewing machine running a line of chain stitches. If this isn’t the case you ought to take note because something serious could be awry.

The same is true for the rest of your car or truck. It should operate as silently as a napping kitten and feel smoother than satin underwear. Modern vehicles are engineering marvels built to exacting standards, but as with anything crafted by man, things will go wrong and often in spectacular fashion. If for some reason your car is making uncouth noises here’s a small sample of what could be going on.
