I RECENTLY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 99 ALERO AND I THOUGHT MY TRANSMISSION WAS GOING OUT. LUCKY FOR ME ALL I NEEDED WAS A NEW SPEED SENSOR WHICH I PICKED UP AT MY LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORE FOR $16.00. WOW !!! THAT WAS A CHEAP AND EASY FIX. WHICH TOOK A CRAWL TO THE TRANNY AND A PHILIPS SCREW DRIVER... THANK YOU JESUS !!!!
Your bike gears may not be shifting smoothly due to issues such as cable tension, derailleur alignment, or worn-out components. It is recommended to have a professional bike mechanic inspect and adjust your gears to ensure smooth shifting.
no.
The speed shifter on a bike works by moving the chain onto different sized gears, which changes the resistance and speed of pedaling. This allows the rider to efficiently and smoothly shift gears to match the terrain or desired speed.
To change gears on a bike effectively and smoothly, first, anticipate the need to shift by observing the terrain ahead. Then, ease off the pressure on the pedals, shift the gear lever to a higher or lower gear depending on the situation, and continue pedaling smoothly to maintain momentum. Practice shifting gears to find the right timing and technique for a seamless transition.
To adjust Shimano gears on a mountain bike, start by shifting to the smallest chainring and cog. Then, use the barrel adjuster to fine-tune the shifting. If the chain is not shifting smoothly, adjust the cable tension by turning the barrel adjuster. Test the gears by shifting through all the gears to ensure smooth operation. If needed, repeat the process until the gears shift smoothly.
broken clutch cable could also be a shot slave cylinder...this will cause the clutch pedal to not come back up.
Sounds more like a transmission mount. When you drive it if it doesnt jump when it shifts gears then more than likely its a mount.
To adjust the gears on a bike for optimal performance, start by shifting to the smallest chainring and cog. Then, adjust the cable tension using the barrel adjuster until the chain moves smoothly. Next, shift through all the gears to ensure smooth transitions. Fine-tune the adjustments as needed until the gears shift smoothly and efficiently.
Your front derailleur may rub against the chain when you shift gears on your bike due to misalignment or improper adjustment of the derailleur. This can cause the chain to not move smoothly between the gears, resulting in rubbing and potential damage to the components. Adjusting the derailleur properly can help prevent this issue.
To tune your bike gears for optimal performance, start by ensuring your bike is clean and well-maintained. Use the barrel adjuster to fine-tune the shifting, making small adjustments until the gears shift smoothly. Check the cable tension and limit screws to ensure the gears are properly aligned. Test ride your bike to make sure the gears are shifting smoothly and make any necessary adjustments.
SAME PROBLEM WITH AN 04 ALERO. NOW THAT COOD WEATHER IS HERE IT TAKES A LONG TIME, DOWN THE ROAD, BEFORE IT WILL SHIFT INTO OVERDRIVE ? ? ?
You need to use the clutch and the shifter smoothly together!
