Samurai446 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Having problems with changing gear on a cold engine. Its only from 1st to 2nd mainly. But as soon as the engine warms up it shifts perfectly. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 might be the wrong type of oil in gearbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Use the genuine Toyota oil for the manual box, apparently it has friction odifiers in it. i have had 2 manuals in with cold shifting problems that were cured by fresh toyota oil. I know at least one of them had ordinary ATF in, which maybe does NOT have the modifiers in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
