Manual Transmission/Transaxle: Description and Operation

DOUBLE-CONE SYNCHRONIZER





Double-cone synchronizer is adopted for 2nd and 3rd gears to reduce operating force of the shift lever.

REVERSE BRAKE MECHANISM





When shifting into reverse gear, the input shaft which is rotating by inertia is stopped to prevent the interference (gear noise) between the reverse idler gear and the chamfered area of the input shaft, thus improving gear shift performance.
