Manual Transaxle Diagnosis: Introduction
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The manual transaxle can exhibit any of the following symptoms: noise or vibration is generated, oil leaks, shifting gears is hard or troublesome, or the transaxle jumps out of gear.
The causes of these symptoms could come from: incorrect mounting, the oil level may be low, or a component of the transaxle may be faulty.
