An Introduction To Manual Transmissions
If you drive a
stick-shift car, then you may have several questions floating
in your head:
- How does the funny "H" pattern that I am moving
this shift knob through have any relation to the gears
inside the transmission? What is moving inside the
transmission when I move the shifter?
- When I mess up and hear that horrible grinding
sound, what is actually grinding?
- What would happen if I were to accidentally shift into
reverse while I am speeding down the freeway? Would
the entire transmission explode?
We'll answer all of these questions and more as we explore the
interior of a manual transmission!
