2002 996tt I was having problems getting into and out of gears, just does not want to engage. More so in 3 and 4th. I also have the GT2RS LWFW. Sometimes it will go in depending on rpm. I have the gearbox rebuilt by Vertex in Miami back in 2008 and never grided gears.😤. It was the original slave and thougt it was the problem, I'm puzzled. I need to find a shop around southeast florida- i live in Port Sant Lucie/Stuart FL area. Any ideas? Thanks

 

Talk to Justin at Rennsport One in Ft Lauderdale. Great guy and great shop.

Are there any signs of clutch drag? With the car stationary and engine running, do you have problems getting into 1st or reverse with the clutch depressed, or is it only when moving?

 

Whats up Sam? Actually I ordered the kit right from you, its Robert. I took your sdvice andcalled Justin and we talked on the phone about the kit, very cool guy. He said to call him with any technical questions, but he wont call or text me back. Not sure where to go from here. Also no problems getting into gear when stationary and engine running, only when moving.

 

Ah! Hello!

I would give Justin a day or so--Daytona was last weekend which is a big deal for them being a race team.

Does the pedal feel consistent when you're moving vs. when you're standing still, and at high and low RPM? If it does, and you don't have any drag with the car stationary, it may be a transmission issue more than a clutch/clutch actuation issue. What kind of clutch is installed in the car?

I will check it again as i only tested it briefly and turned back. The clutch is a Sachs GT2RSR LWFW and Clutch

 

could be a bad syncro which was what was the problem with mine 3&4 syncro brass stops bent and wont allow the car to go into gear. could also be improper shimming by the rebuilder causing drag on the gears.

 

To be honest I had so many issues with that GT2RS flywheel and putting into gears. I switched it to the Aasco flywheel and problems were gone .
