Manual Transmission/Transaxle: Description and Operation






DESCRIPTION

This five speed is a constant-mesh manual transaxle. All gear ranges, except reverse, are synchronized. The transaxle case is aluminum with a steel end-plate cover. It is housed in a die-cast aluminum case featuring a two-piece, middle split design.

The C514 transaxle internal components can be serviced only by separating the gear case from the bellhousing case.

GEAR RATIOS






The differential is a conventional arrangement of gears that is supported by roller bearings. The final output gear turns the ring gear and differential assembly, thereby turning the drive axle shafts.

GEARSHIFT PATTERN





1. The C514 transaxle shift pattern is a modified H-pattern. Overdrive fifth and reverse gears are outboard of the first through fourth gear positions.
