Synchro Sleeve and Hub Inspection and Reassembly
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Honda Fit, 2012 Honda Fit, 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Inspect gear teeth on all synchro hubs and synchro sleeves for rounded off corners, which indicate wear.
- Install each synchro hub (A) in its mating synchro sleeve (B), and check for freedom of movement. Be sure to match the three sets of longer teeth (C) (120 degrees apart) on the synchro sleeve with the three sets of deeper grooves (D) in the synchro hub. Do not install the synchro sleeve with its longer teeth in the synchro hub slots (E) because it will damage the spring ring.NOTE: If required, always replace the synchro sleeve and the synchro hub as a set.
