Lack of transmition fluid can be the problem if not it should be taken to a mechanic for checking before it brakes. having a transmition repaired is a costly deed.
No, just automatic transmissions. Manual transmissions do not need to be cooled as they are just a gear box with heavy gear oil in them.
Both types of transmissions use different types of lubricants specifically designed for that particular gear train . Automatic transmissions utilize a lower viscosity oil than a manual transmission which employs a heavier gear oil .
Park for automatic transmissions, and Neutral for stick shifts.
Not sure what you are referring to. On some transmissions it is the highest gear on others (8 and 9 speeds) it is a low gear.Not sure what you are referring to. On some transmissions it is the highest gear on others (8 and 9 speeds) it is a low gear.
From what I've researched, Gear oil only... ATF is for Automatic Transmissions
In automatic transmissions the second to third syncronizers always seem to go bad first, the syncronizers are worn, bad or gone. This is common in these transmissions. Also you might check your trans fluid level, sometimes a low level will cause the transmission not to shift correctly.
There is not a gear in the engine, they do have a speed limiter in the computer. Also some older automatic transmissions have a "governor" to adjust shift points.
There are a few automatics out there which use a centrifugal type clutch which is always in gear depending on engine rpm's. For the most part motorcycles are manual transmissions.
The transmission may need a flush and filter, or in my 92 accord I solved the problem merely by changing the transmissions computer.
only automatic transmissions, manuals have their forward and reverse gear selections
Overdrive is like 5th gear for cruising in most automatic transmissions, the common place for the on and off button is on the gear selector.
There really aren't automatic or manual engines, but there are manual and automatic transmissions - gear boxes. Automatics don't need shifting as you pick up speed going forward, but manuals do.
