Hello,
I have a 915 transmission with side shifter on my 914 ... transmission grinded a couple of times when going to fourth and then a day later when I put the stick in reverse it actually engages 4th gear - anyone see this before? Thanks in advance. -Colin |

It does sound like your coupler came out of adjustment. Mine is below the center cushion.
Are you using the stock 915 shifter with reverse lockout? I'm using a Rennshift and since reverse is below 5th, when shifting from 5th to 4th, I let the shifter move back to the center plane on its own and then shift down to 4th. It takes a little bit of getting used to, so you don't hit reverse from 5th. Is yours a velios? |
