Replaced the clutch on a 2003 Corolla Ascent made in South Africa model and cannot get the new driveshafts to fully seat (Replacing the old ones as part of the job). They are also in to a point where they won't easily come out. I'm starting to wonder if they are actually fully in. But I think they have to go another 2 cm or so. Any help appreciated. I've tried the hammer block of wood to the end of the shaft, pushing by hand with sharp force etc. But just can't get them to fully seat. I did check to see if they were the same length as the old ones along the splines etc before they went in and they seemed to match.

Thanks

Yes- thanks Trent. After servicing the transmission it came good. Tough units. Lots of gunk in the old oil and filter!

Hi, first post here!
My partner was driving our 93' Camry Vienta through a roundabout today when it suddenly lost all gears, (behaved as in neutral). When left to sit for about 10 seconds it will fix itself up. Pop in drive: works, reverse: works, drive: works, reverse: stops working... all gears lost. Turn off, wait ten seconds. start it; same thing: works, works, works, stops working after about 10 seconds. Does it again and again.
Normally when its on its way out it will work when cold and then stops when it gets warm or hot, but this seems to be different.

Hopefully someone knows this problem and has a fix. Otherwise I'm thinking about doing a filter and fluid change tomorrow, to see if it improves things as a first step in fixing it, final step...... being the replacing the transmission.

Thanks!
