Before you try to do manual transmission repair on your own, there are a few things you must consider before you get your car up on jacks and start tearing apart your assembly.

Manual Transmissions Are Complex
Manual transmissions are one of the most complex parts of the workings of any vehicle and this is good enough reason not to try and tackle repairs to the transmission but to take the vehicle to a qualified mechanic. In old school vehicles, clutches and manual transmissions were a lot more rudimentary. However, a lot of modern manual transmissions are more complex.
While there are two types of the manual transmission, the constant mesh and sliding gear, the mesh is the most common, with the sliding gear being all but obsolete. The modern transmissions used in vehicles today are the constant mesh ones and the difference is that the main shaft gears are with the cluster gears in the constant mesh, while in the sliding gear they are not. The manual transmission vehicle is generally considered to be the more fun to drive, however there are some individuals who do prefer the automatic transmission.
Clutch Service Is Better Than Clutch Repair
As you can see there are many things that can go wrong with a manual transmission which means you need to seek the help of a qualified mechanic to undertake manual transmission repairs due to the complexity of the transmission. Prevention is of course better than cure and there are some things the car owner can do in regards to maintaining their manual transmission and so help themselves to avoid issues. Otherwise, they might find themselves having to deal with clutch repair and/or manual transmission repair. While it is tempting to let it go, sometimes you have to be proactive.
To help avoid potential issues with the transmission or the clutch drivers should ensure when using the clutch they always press is down fully and never be tempted to “ride it” as by doing so you may help to wear it out. Don’t use the clutch to help to you slow down by tapping it and when going down gears accelerate or the vehicle may lurch and this can stress out the clutch along with the transmission. These tips may help you to avoid manual transmission repairs with a qualified mechanic.
