Problems with first and second gear ( Totally lost) No running :(

Featured Replies

Hi my car lost 1st and 2nd gear. It all happened while driving a car. I was parking a car and when I first shifted from 3rd gear to 2nd gear and from there to the first. I thought I hadn’t changed gears but would have remained neutral. The gear selector showed 1 gear and when I released the clutch nothing happened ....

Later I went to test the car and noticed that the reverse gear works and the clutch works like before when I reversed the car. I was also able to leave for a small downhill in 3 gears.

So now there is 1 and the second gear is lost. When I engage 1 gear and release the clutch, a small noise is heard from the gearbox. Like a wheel that doesn't engage properly then the car doesn't move either;). When I press the bottom of the switch, the sound disappears. But like I said, reverse gear works and doesn’t sound. Likewise, the 3rd gear also didn’t hold sound.

If the cluch or flywheel were broken then hardly then the other gears would work at all ??

What to do? Is there any good advice? The car didn't have to make any suspicious noises before the gears disappeared and everything worked normally until ...

The car has now been driven 380,000km. clutch and everything else still original ..
Is there any good advice?

Yeah, post it in a readable format.

Replace the gearbox, it's completely worn out after 380k.
