your problem is one that i have encountered numerous times, you need to replace key cylinder with key, cylinder has a microchip in it with two very thin wires coming out of it (something like 30 gauge or 35,very thin) wires usually break because of constant movement, causing open circuit and computer system not acknowledging correct key used due to vehicle pass-lock II ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
what do you reset the cehck engine light patriot manual transmission 2008? thanks for you support.
How does a 98 A4 manual 2.8 litre have a transmission light? Mine doesn't.
ok, to start off, not trying to sound like a smartass or anything, but their is no dipstick on a manual transmission. their is a fill/check plug on the side of the transmission. you have to take it out and check the level that way on a manual transmission.
if its a manual transmission try push-starting it, otherwise try jumping it.
Your manual transmission does not have to have fluid in it in order to start the engine. Theoretically you can start the engine with the transmission out of the vehicle totally. That being said.... Its not a good idea to start the engine if there is no fluid in the transmission just in case someone tries to move the vehicle by putting it in gear. You do not want to drive the vehicle with no fluid in the trans.
The first gear in a car with a manual transmission is used to start the car moving from being stopped and to climb steep grades at a low speed.
no i disagree. Yes you can push start it if it has a manual transmission.
If it has a manual transmission - yes. Auto tranny - no.
transmission trouble for sure
Manual transmission? Clutch worn out. Automatic transmission? Low fluid level, plugged filter, or worn out clutches.
If it's an automatic transmission the linkage needs to be adjusted. On a manual transmission when it pops out of gear it means there may be a bad synchronize for that gear a mechanic will need to repair. Once in a while a manual transmission will start doing this if it is low on gear oil.
It means check your transmission, why not start with the oil.
