The phrase
"input shaft" refers to a rotating rod or component that is used to transfer power into a machine or system. It is typically the first point where energy or force enters, and it helps to initiate the operations of the device.
Full definition
Hi there - the leak you describe could certainly be caused by the transmission
input shaft seal.
Test the steering while the car is still in the air so as to not put a load on the
new input shaft seal and gear box.
This is the job of the power
steering input shaft seal and why it's very important to the complete operation of the power steering system.
Using a grease pen or other material, make sure to mark the location of the
outside input shaft cover on the housing.
The engine is mated with a newly designed 7 - speed gearbox featuring the world's first dual clutch configuration for a
single input shaft system.
This allows the engine to continue to rotate even though you have the brakes applied and have stopped the
transmissions input shaft.
The splined
input shaft of the transmission is placed through the friction disk and rides on a pilot bearing at the center of the flywheel.
Mercedes mounts its electric motor to the seven - speed automatic's
input shaft in the transmission bellhousing, allowing for a single wet clutch to couple the engine and no need for a second clutch to decouple the electric motor.
When the new steering shaft is installed, make sure the
splined input shaft of the steering box and steering wheel shaft are flush with the opening of each U-joint on the Borgeson shaft.
Twin Clutch SST puts odd (1st, 3rd, 5th) and even (2nd, 4th and 6th) gears on
separate input shafts, each connected to an individual clutch.
You may have a
leaking input shaft seal on the transmission that is contaminating the clutch plate with gear oil, causing slippage under load.
Came equipped with the YS1 cable transmission, which was different from other cable B - series YS1 transmissions as it has a
different input shaft and a shorter final drive.
All this motor and power is tied to a TKO 600 5 speed manual transmission, 26 spline
billet input shaft, steeda shifter with long shifter handle, and HPM heavy duty cross member.
In addition, all Magnums (and most TR - 6060s) use a 26 - spline
input shaft for maximum surface area and subsequent strength.
Power was transmitted to the wheels via the single - staged transmission and
short input shafts.
A
replaceable input shaft sleeve allows for affordable and quick repair, while competitive transmissions require a costly and time - consuming full teardown.
Twin Clutch SST puts odd (1st, 3rd, 5th) and even (2nd, 4th and 6th) gears on
separate input shafts each with its own clutch and, through tight cooperative control with the engine, switches between these clutches to realize seamless and lightning - fast shifting for feel - good acceleration.
If you've read these instructions and still don't feel confident in completing this repair, please contact one of the local ASE certified mechanics at YourMechanic to complete the power
steering input shaft seal replacement job for you.
A possibility is that the clutch centre plate is not moving on the
gearbox input shaft and then «dragging» on the flywheel which makes it hard to engage gears.
The DCT is made up of two dry clutches, each fitted with an electric motor - driven clutch actuator to improve fuel economy, and a pair of
gear input shafts, one each for the odd and even gear ratios.
Nothing much to worry about apart from listening for untoward whines from bearings, including
the input shaft bearing which might grumble in neutral with the clutch engaged.
Please not, it's not that
the input shaft stops immediately when the clutch is disengaged.
That is allowing
the input shaft to turn slightly and get the gears to line up so you can put it into gear.
If the noise is not just something simple say from the release / spigot bearing then it could be something more serious like
an input shaft or mainshaft bearing / bearings etc..
The Miata's manual transmission has an unusual 1:1 sixth - gear ratio In most modern manual - transmission cars, fifth, sixth, and even seventh gears are overdrive gears, meaning the transmission's output shaft spins faster than
the input shaft to lower engine speed and, hopefully, save fuel.
If so, the scraping is
the input shaft bearing.
In particular for my car a backed - off nut on the rear of the transmission's
input shaft is often implicated.
The input shaft is connected to the countershaft.
However, when you down - shift, not only does all the work of getting
the input shaft revolutions up to that of the output shaft fall on the synchromeshes, but they also have to counteract that same friction which normally helps.
When you change gear slowly,
the input shaft rpm has time to drop off before the synchromesh engages, so the speed difference that has to be overcome by the synchromesh is small.
It would just be
the input shaft bearings adding to the inertia.
The purpose of depressing the clutch is to disengage engine power from being applied to the transmission
input shaft.
Actually, in a synchro transmission, the engine is spinning a lot more than just
the input shaft even when in neutral.
It sounds like a lubrication issue between the release bearing sleeve and
the input shaft «snout».
When you up - shift,
the input shaft drops in speed by ordinary friction, and the synchromeshes don't need to work much in order to match it to the speed of the output gear.
Same car (with carburetor) would exhibit a subtle drop in idle RPM while dragging
the input shaft or slight increase when the clutch pedal was depressed.
You can test the transmission by putting it through the gears while turning
the input shaft and examining the output shaft for proper rotation.
What I mean by this is, put the transmission in first gear and check the output shaft rotation speed as you turn
the input shaft.
This in my opinion wastes some fuel (because
the input shaft of torque converter is spinning but the output shaft is not, and therefore, there is some power loss in the torque converter).
My understanding is that when at «D»,
the input shaft of the torque converter is spinning.
I've tried to search around online, but I've only been able to find very simplistic explanations, like «
the input shaft turns the output shaft which turns the final drive which turns the wheels».
Also, it could be that, as someone else stated, that the clutch friction plate is stuck on
the input shaft, through either corrosion or clutch friction material powder from wear getting on the input shaft, causing the plate to stick.
