Manual Transmission/Transaxle
General Description
Manual Transaxle ConstructionS6RW0D5201001
The transaxle provides five forward speeds and one reverse speed by means of three synchromesh devices and three
shafts-input shaft, countershaft and reverse gear shaft. All forward gears are in constant mesh, and reverse uses a
sliding idler gear arrangement.
The low speed sleeve & hub is mounted on countershaft and engaged with countershaft 1st gear or 2nd gear, while
the high speed sleeve & hub is done on input shaft and engaged with input shaft 3rd gear or 4th gear. The 5th speed
sleeve & hub on input shaft is engaged with input shaft 5th gear mounted on the input shaft.
To prevent the cracking noise from the reverse gear when shifting transaxle gear into the reverse gear, the reverse
shift braking device is used.
The device utilizes the 5th synchromesh, which is the lever synchro type, to apply the brake on the input shaft rotation.
The double cone synchronizing mechanism is provided to 2nd gear synchromesh device for high performance of
shifting to 2nd gear.
For servicing, it is necessary to use genuine sealant or its equivalent on mating surfaces of transaxle case which is
made of aluminum. The case fastening bolts must be tightened to specified torque by means of torque wrench. It is
also important that all parts are thoroughly cleaned with cleaning fluid and air dried before reassembling.
Further, care must be taken to adjust preload of countershaft taper roller bearings. New synchronizer rings are
prohibited from being lapped with respective gear cones by using lapping compound before they are assembled.

Gear Shift Mechanism
The gear shifting control system consists of the following main parts. Movement of gear shift control lever is
transmitted to gear shift & select shaft through gear shift and gear select cables.

5th & Reverse Gear Shift Cam
5th & reverse gear shift cam, cam guide return spring
and 5th to reverse interlock guide bolt are provided to
prevent the gear from being directly shifted from 5th to
reverse.
1) When shift lever is at neutral position between 3rd
and 4th gear, shift cam (2) is under guide bolt and
can turn freely clockwise (to 3rd gear) and
counterclockwise (to 4th gear).
2) When shift lever is shifted toward the right from
neutral position, shift and select shaft (1) moves up
but shift cam (2) is restricted by guide bolt and return
spring is contracted.3) When shift lever is shifted to 5th gear, shift & select
shaft (1) turns clockwise letting shift cam (2) off from
guide bolt and pushed up by return spring. In this
state, movement of shift cam is restricted by guide
bolt and therefore, gearshift to reverse is not
attainable.
4) When shift lever is shifted from neutral position
between 5th gear and reverse gear to reverse gear,
shift cam (2) turns counterclockwise to attain reverse
gear.
