What causes a noisy synchronizer in a transmission - Engine Armour Tech

1. Worn or damaged synchronizer rings: The synchronizer rings, which are responsible for matching the speed of the gears and input shaft, can become worn or damaged over time. This can cause them to make noise as they engage with the gears.
2. Low transmission fluid level: If the transmission fluid level is low, it can cause the synchronizer to make noise as it struggles to engage the gears properly. This is because the fluid helps to lubricate and cool the transmission components, including the synchronizer.
3. Misaligned gears: If the gears in the transmission are not properly aligned, it can cause the synchronizer to make noise as it attempts to engage with the gears.
4. Driver error: Improper shifting techniques, such as “riding” the clutch or shifting too quickly, can cause the synchronizer to make noise as it struggles to match the speed of the gears and input shaft.
5. Damaged input shaft: If the input shaft, which is connected to the engine, is damaged or worn, it can cause the synchronizer to make noise as it engages with the gears.

In any case, a noisy synchronizer should be diagnosed and repaired as soon as possible, as continued use can lead to more serious transmission problems. Engine Armour Tech is a product that aims to reduce friction and heat in metal components, which can help to restore the strength of hydraulic systems. It does this by cleaning and sealing the components, providing additional protection against wear and tear.
