Bg5s Gearbox Problem

GuruG · March 13, 2009

Yesterday while I was driving I felt some tension in steering specialy when tuning to right and after a "dhading" noise the tesion goes off. I checked for many possible causes and only to find out one of the cv boots been sliced in 2 and a small leak near clutch slave cylinder. So I replaced both of them.

While I was driving back home from the garage, the blody tention and the sound is still there and worse I can hear the tires rubing the ground (sound like when alignment is off) at slow turns. I asked the garage dude whether to do alignment check but he said no need. So today morning when I was comin back to work the gear got stuck at 2nd. I couldn't move the gear even when engine is off. Lucky for me the garage is right next to my office. So i called the dude and we pushed the can lil back so he can take the car to the garage. Then what do u know all gears are working except for the 2nd. :blink:

I talled him to do a tharough check. When he tries to move the car inside the garage only 3rd, 4th n 5th works. All this after replacing cv joint n clutch slave cyl. They did this n than but its still the same. So both of us were thinkin of relation betwenn cv n gearbox. Then the worse came in 2 me mind. Is it the diff <_< ??? No choice but removed the gbox and wholla !!!

Nothin wrong

Looks Fine

The culprit

I was stunned for a while n thought what if any of these pieces got stuck in synchro or any other worse possible place when goin at 100km or when revin high.

A gearbox guru said to me that those are peices from the star gear in the diff. :mellow: Anyways I'm out hunting for a gearbox to my car Mazda BG5s. If any1 got 1 or can get me 1 for a good deal, Pls let me know.... Thx.
