Should I buy AMT or manual car?
If you are buying a car to get the maximum efficiency, then better stick to the manual gearbox. AMT, or automated manual transmission, is the most budget-friendly forms of automatic transmission and is necessarily a manual gearbox without a clutch.
What happens if you have a gear shifting problem?
The longer a gear shifting problem occurs, the greater the overall damage will be to your car’s transmission. Newer vehicles with electronically monitored shifting systems should be checked for any wiring problems, as any electronic issues with the sensors can affect how the transmission operates.
Can a bad transmission shift solenoid cause hard shifting?
You may also have intermittent problems with the transmission shift solenoid, which will cause shifting problems. This can cause hard shifting or shiftings at too low or too high RPM, for example.
Why is my gearshift stuck in my garage?
Cold weather can cause havoc on the system, resulting in low line pressure and gear trouble as well. A frozen shift lock solenoid can be the culprit behind a stuck gearshift. Heating up your garage can help resolve this problem.
Why is my gear shifter making a hissing noise?
If the gear shifter or the shift linkage are making a hissing of buzzing noise while the car is moving, particularly while the vehicle is accelerating or decelerating, a loose bolt or worn rubber isolators in the shift linkage is the most common cause.
Why is my automatic transmission not shifting?

It is best to get this checked out by an experienced auto mechanic technician who understands the electrical system. Other indicators include bad connections within, or worn out sensors and faulty solenoids.
What causes a transmission not to shift?
A lack of fluid or dirty fluid would cause the transmission not to shift properly. We recommend checking for transmission fluid loss, and using BlueDevil Transmission Sealer if the system is low. If the fluid looks dirty, you may want to have a transmission system flush performed and refill it with clean fluid.
What are the signs of a bad transmission?
There are two types of transmissions, manual and automatic; while they work differently, they can both become damaged over time. If you have never worked with cars before, it can be hard to know when you have a bad transmission. Some signs of a bad transmission include the car stalling or your gears are grinding.
What are the symptoms of a bad transmission clutch?
Problems with the clutch disc itself or its related parts can cause many symptoms. Your car may function poorly: it may start out slowly even though the engine is racing. Noises may indicate a problem: your clutch pedal may make noise, or your transmission may make noise when the car is in neutral.
