Well, let's drive the car into the pit. I’m going to look at the rest of the joints, leaks, etc. at the same time.
Cracked coolant hose
Leaking crankcase gasket in the flywheel area
The drive rubs against the plastic protection
But this is all nonsense. What about the checkpoint? Why don't the transmissions stick in?
And the gears don’t stick in because the fastening of the gearbox and the jet thrust have been torn off. Accordingly, the gear shift lever moves, but not along the desired trajectories.
Torn transmission support
Torn off ball joint of gearbox thrust
Having unscrewed the gearbox support, I saw an even bigger problem - a torn spar under the support itself.
Naturally, you can’t do without welding here. We clean the body from anticorrosive to metal. Let's cook. We cover the weld seam and the area around it with a new anticorrosive agent.
Then we attach a new gearbox support.
Now remove the ball joint for the gearshift lever. The manual says that this needs to be done from the cabin and that you need to disassemble the massive amount of trim in the cabin. I don't think so. Everything is made from a pit, but to be honest, with some Kama Sutra...
Unscrew the old one. Using a small screwdriver, pry up the retaining ring and remove it.
Clean the ball with a rag
We put grease into the new one. We stand and lock it with a ring. This is the Kama Sutra, of course...
The new one costs as it should
And now we adjust and tighten the main gearbox support.
Actually, now the gears are stuck in normally
