Is downshifting to 1 while the car is moving fine? My vehicle struggles in second gear at low speeds and below 5km/h, it'd just turn off. Also, I'm driving through busy streets and there's constant need to shift gears. I started my driving lessons strictly following the gearshift indicator, but it isn't very practical. So now, should I keep shifting gears or tax the engine more than the clutch plate?

Edit: looks like he has the watch in his possession so I will remove this post. However, I do still believe he is listing the watch for sale before even having it. He has neglected time stamps on three of his previous sales posts. Just search his name on WatchRecon to find all the deleted posts.

Original post: Warning everyone that this user is selling watches that aren’t even in his posesssion. Blatantly using other sellers photos (which I have taken screenshots of) before he even has the watch in his possession. What he’s doing is listing them before he has them aka drop shipping.

Here’s an example where he blatantly ripped sellers photos from eBay, claims “COSC”, and has no time stamp so mods removed it (which I reported on):

This watch was PURCHASED: May 27th. He’s not even using his own photos and there is no time stamp (presently). This is down right wrong and needs to

Was in communication with this user on my Visitor Watch Co. Linden recently listed, when they just stopped responding. Had agreed upon a price and was working out details of payment, then no response. Gave a warning message that they had until today (roughly 20 hrs) for a response, or I would reopen the watch for sale. Checked their profile, and they posted to other subs during this time period. Hopefully I haven't missed a potential sale of this watch with someone else because of this. Was disappointed because they have previous good feedback.

*Edit: After many of these comments and his "apology" on this post, he messaged me this:

"Thanks to the cool review guy. Big deal I'm busy and didn't get back to you. So sell to someone else. People message me all day about watches and then disappear. It's a fucking reddit forum. I never scammed anyone and I have nothing but perfect feedback as a seller and your stupid post on the feedback forum started a shitstorm just because I didn't get

Hey everyone. I've been driving a 5 spd for about 2 months. Still not great at it. I've noticed though that the gearshift seems to be a little rough lately. Like, I can feel a lot of friction in the shifter and it takes quite a bit of force to get it to "click" into gear sometimes. More than usual it seems.

Common sense says change the tranny fluid but I thought I'd get a more experienced opinion before I go undoing bolts. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Found what I needed

Hi everyone,

I recently helped a friend improve her '89 CRX's shifting feel. I changed the transmission fluid and replaced all the worn and rotted shift stabilizer bushings with polyurethane ones, and that restored a ton of lost "crispness" to the shifter.

Yet, there's still some room for improvement. I took the guesswork out of feeling for the gears, now I want to get rid of the play when it's in gear and in neutral.

I've been looking for the bushing that wraps around the pivot ball of the gearshifter, but it seems like any combination of words I type into google just leads me back to the shift stabilizer bushings.

Does anyone have part numbers I can look up rather than keywords? Furthermore, are there some new bushings I can buy for the connection from the bottom of the gearshift->shift linkage, if there are any in a CRX?

My oil is leaking through the hole where my gearshift comes out. Is this usually fixable? What can I expect to replace?

If it helps, I have a 1981 Honda CM400T

My girlfriend and I were heavily making out when all of a sudden she stopped, grabbed me, turned to her imaginary steering wheel, and starting going "vroom" while "shifting" my gear.

Yep.

So to begin i will say I do not think u/gearshift_digital is a scammer.

To begin, we had come to an agreement of my Rolex 16220 for the price of 3400$. Come time of payment he said he had 3300$ on his paypal and if I'd be okay with that instead of the 3400$, I told him just pay me back by May 26th the 100$ and just send me the 3300 and ill ship out the watch. No big deal. Watch arrived the 29th of April, I saw him selling it the 5th of May (which is fine it's his watch he can do as he so chooses). I texted him asking him if he could send me the 100$ early since it seems he's going be selling the watch, he told me as soon as its sold he'll send over the money. I notice the watch sold on his page so I text him a little earlier than our initial agreed upon date (May 23rd), if he could send me payment as he had sold the watch. No reply til the 26th, which he asks for a time extension til the 30th of May (Today). Fast forward to today I receive the remaining 100$.

Hey guys,

my gearshift/car has been shaking for a few months now, most noticeably at low rpms (stationary). Once I start driving I don't really feel it anymore. I've got a video of a cold start, so my rpm is near 1k, it drops normally to 650 after a minute or 2: https://streamable.com/11o1t2

After about 10-20 seconds after the previous video it started shaking a bit more as the rpm got lower: https://streamable.com/c3mh16

Could this be an injector or engine mount issue?

So afaik it seem that the main difference between these two bikes is the gearshift hardware. The thing I'm amazed at is that the SL7 is $2,200 more than the SL6! Why is it so much more than the 6? I can believe that one step up has so much benefit to warrant such a price increase. Am I missing something?

Hello,

I recently sold a Rolex Oyster Perpetual to u/gearshift_digital.

Communication was good, payment was prompt and it was a good deal/transaction.

I can recommend doing business with him.

Hiya! My 03 element has been running great, but yesterday evening I started it but the gearshift won’t move. I drove it through a carwash yesterday and it’s in 50’s so nothings cold frozen. Didn’t even pay extra for undercarriage wash. It’s been shifting fine. Any ideas?

I’ve been looking into getting a Stinger GT1 or GT2 but I’m confused about the gearshift each car comes with. I was under the impression they had the same transmission and gearshift, but I’ve been seeing some models that have a different looking gearshift than than small electronic one I believed to be standard. Is there a difference between the G1 and G2? If not, is there another similar model to the GT that has a different gearshift?

So, I just got into the dumbest accident in the world. And yeah, some of it is my fault, but some of it is the stupid gearshift nob.

I don't usually go to the drive-though car washes but my car was pretty filthy and there was one on my drive home. This is maybe the second time I have used a drive-though wash since I bought my Prius about 6 mo ago. And since it is Sunday, it was packed.

Anyway, long story short, I get to the front of the line and flick the nob into neutral and take my foot off the break, like the sign says. And I don't really think anything when the car starts moving forward bc that is what it is supposed to do. Except I'm getting really close to the car ahead of me... And hit it. Because I'm not in fucking neutral, because my gear change didn't register.

This happens once in a while in the morning when I shift to reverse to back out of my parking space, but all that happens is that my car doesn't move. No big deal. And now I listen for the beeping to confirm I'm in

Glad to see him rockin' out, post BtS.

Or am I just remembering things poorly?

I feel like some you have to pull towards you to get the bigger gear, while others you have to push away from you.

Is this a design consideration? Or is it a way to even out the wear and tear on a bike?

I was just curious.

Hi guys, has anyone has this issue? I got the 2019 wrx base with factory short throw shifter from California. I test drove the car and didn’t really notice it until I drove it back home to Vegas and started driving it on my daily commute. All the gears are smooth like buttah but when going back and forth between 1st and 2nd it is clunky. It is starting to irritate me. The car has 455 miles on it already having an issue. My 2005 Scion tC with manual transmission is alot smoother and goes 1st to 2nd with one motion. On my wrx however it goes clunk, thunk, clink... is anyone else having this on their 2019? Worth taking to dealership and getting it looked at?

Had my 18 fost for a year now, it was my first manual car.

Question, is ther anything to fix the 1st to 2nd gear shift since sometimes at wot it feels like it doesnt want to go into 2nd, so embarrassing thinking im in 2nd and it goes into neutral and im rev bombing people.

It feels like 2nd has 2 gates and the first click make me think im in gear when im not sometimes.

Usually worse when someone else is in the car and im distracted and miss 2nd(also seems stiff as hell when cold outside).

I have 0 problems with every other gear and can even heel toe and passengers think there in a auto transmission its so smooth.

The other week we had soda spill into the gear shift of our car, and despite trying to clean it up, some appears to have caused a big problem and the gear shift or the inner coverings is sticking horribly.

I can't seem to find a way to remove the coverings so we can clean it better and hopefully make it stop sticking. Does anyone know where to find a guide about how to do so?

I noticed that suddenly the Impala has a button strapped to the gearshift towards the end of S10. I'm on the S11 premiere, and it has yet to be used or explained. If this something that will later be used in the show, or is it something the prop department added for a specific function that they expected us to not notice/ignore?
