if your slave is bad i would change that too because if the clutch is not fully disengaging then you can be wearing out the blocker rings faster too

i would check strut tops control arm bushings or the sway bar. sounds like sway bar end links or bushings to me. you can check the sway bar bushings and links with the suspension loaded and just grab the bar and forcefully try to move the bar and see if there is any play in the end links and the...

if its a wheel bearing, jack that wheel off the ground try spinning it and see if it makes any noise and then grab the top and bottom of the wheel and try to move it in and out and see if there is play if there and it lookes like the rotor is moving the same as the wheel then it is the bearing

i acctually just put my tranny back in after taking it out because of a third gear grind. when i got the transmission apart i found third gear syncro had teeth missing. the blocker ring seemed fine but i put new syncro in and 3rd and 4th blocker ring in and it shifts good now. take it apart find...

i have an 02 p5 and the tranny would grind going into 3rd gear so i pulled it apart to replace blocker rings and syncro but the 3rd gear was all chewed up and i have to pull the gears. the manual says to pull the bearing and 4th out and then 3rd and the syncro but the gap between 4th and the...

I have a 2002 p5 with a standard tranny and its been grinding 3rd and reverse. getting a little annoying so i want to buy a rebuild kit but cant seem to find the right kit. i had a shift fork break already but at the time it wasnt grinding so i didnt think about it. so i know there is 2 diff...

im in need of a dark blue front bumper in good condition and with the left side amber lense. if anyone has one pm me a price

the compressor will shut off on wide open throttle so only when you have it all the way floored

That doesn't make sense. What are you trying to do? replace a coil pack or plugs. And on what size motor?

I did it the others day on mine used a pry bar from the bottom between tranny and cv joint

Yea the only thing worse then doing something twice is doing it twice and not getting paid for it. So I want to do everything while the motor is out and not have to worry

is there a kit to do 5th gear swap for this car?

it didnt break the actual forks that go on the syncro. there is a tab on the one that broke that makes another shift fork move with it. and that broke. i dont know how this one happened it was towed in and he didnt want to fix it so i bought it from him. but the reverse gear was kind of chewed up.

I already have the tranny apart and a shift fork was broken nothing wrong with the engine but it would be stupid to put it back in without doing everything to it on the stand you wouldndt by a used shift fork or any of the other parts used especially when the fork is 40$ and then I get 30% off...

i have an 02 protoge5 with 180,000 miles i bought it for 500 bucks because transmission was stuck in gear ended up being a broken shift fork. i took out the engine with the transmisson just because i dont know what they did or didnt do and its leaking oil from everywhere i was wondering what...
