pops out of 5 gear

I was driving the other day in5 gear and it felt lke it popped out but it didn,t . It felt like it was in neutral. A couple of days later lost all gears. Changed clutch and bought used tranny. driving home after done installing clutch and tranny it started to loose 5 gear again .
the only thing done before is changed halfshaft on drivers side please hel;p

If you already replaced your clutch, I say check your axles, they might be popping out halfway from your tranny input.

:iagree:

My drivers axle was halfway out and that damn thing would shudder like a mofo while decelerating in gear..at first, later on it startedto do it while just driving, pissed me off, took a look and it had no ring to hold it in!

on drivers side should you see any of axelshaft that goes into transaxel? or does the inner cv joint go right up against tranny?

On the drivers side the shaft goes into an intermediate shaft, or an extension if you will. That runs into the transmission, th passenger side goes straight into the diff.

Wait im pretty sure a stock d-series tranny in a 4th gen doesnt have an intermediate shaft. These cars have a longer drivers side axle and do not use intermediate shafts. So you technically should not see any of the axle input hanging out of the tranny. The cv joint area should be pressed up snug at tight against the differential housing.

^^^^^ you are correct. only b series have intermediate shafts.

Ah, sorry..never had a d-series..my bad.

i thought the zc tranny had one (an intermediate shaft)????

yeah i think it does.

Hmm so if the zc tranny's got an intermediate shaft, do d-series EG's come with them too, what about EK's, do only 4th gen d-series trannys not have intermediate shafts? I know all b-series tranny's come with them.

hey guys you were right the drivers side axel wasn't in all the way . It does fit tight against tranny. Thanks for the help ! your help saves me and others lots of money.

No kidding, that would be at least $50 just for them to tell you the damn thing was out.
