Hi all

I have now a 00 z24 cavalier, and my transmission have some problems, when the car is off, all it`s ok, but when the engine run, the 2-4-r gear is not engageable, but when car is off, 2-4-r engage no1 so i think my problem is in my transmission, i check my cable and all is fine

my friend have a 97 z24 5sp cavy transmission, ill it fit ?

I need your help

Thanks

No tranny's are different. Really sounds like a bad shifter cable to me. They like to stretch.

What about the above statement? I'm not trying to give you a hard time, but fully understand. Maybe also a clutch issue based off your last post.

If your mechanic can shift the transmission into 2-4-R with the shift cables removed, while the car is running (with your foot on the clutch, obviously), there is almost a 100% chance it is the shift cable.
