SUBJECT: HARD SHIFTING FIVE-SPEED MANUAL TRANSAXLES

MODELS AFFECTED: ANY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH FIVE-SPEED TRANSAXLE


If a condition of hard shifting or second gear lock-up is experienced on a five-speed manual transaxle after internal repairs, it may be caused by missing or incorrectly installed lock pins. This is especially true in the case of items #39 and #41 in the illustration. These two pins are slightly different in length and shape; and if installed in the wrong positon, may cause one or both of the above conditions.

Item #39 Part #94250114

Length .482" to .486" long (12.3 mm )
Cosmetic Difference Spherical Ends

Item #41 Part #94250116
