Manual Jimny 2023

[Autumn Pitz]

Ifyou're looking for the best combination of high-range and low-range ratios for your manual shift Jimny transfer case, this is the kit you want. Our Jimny low-range gears will reduce the high-range ratio of your pushbutton transfer case by 24% and the low-range ratio by 84%. They will greatly improve your off-road experience on Jimnys with larger tires.

This complete kit includes (4) new gears made from high-strength SCM415 alloy steel along with a new retaining ring. We also include a set of our Trail-Safe Jimny transfer case input/output seals along with (3) new staking nuts and a tube of Ultra Grey RTV silicone to seal your transfer case. Detailed instructions are provided to guide you through the installation.

Trail-Gear opened its doors in 2005. Our Goal: Provide high quality parts to the every-man wheeler at a great price. We hope to make the sport accessible to new wheelers and give veteran drivers equipment they can be confident with. Read More

and variants thereof. I thought I could best address these and add to the conversation by a deep dive into the specifications of each transmission type, a bit on how they work and some of the potential positives and negatives that arise for each.

Any descent is going to be easier in a manual in first gear low range, with or without hill descent assistance from the car. An automatic is more likely to heat up its brakes doing that. An automatic is also prone to overheating the transmission fluid in long sand runs or large climbs, especially if you are in high range and relying on the torque multiplication of the torque converter. While not common and there are fixes, this can be a thing.

Automatics also have a harder time to do things like extend the gearbox breather so are more likely to ingest water, are then harder to clean out, and more things can go wrong when they do ingest water. On the flipside, a manual car with lots of brake LSD intervention basically is going to heavily wear the clutch and potentially destroy it very quickly. The slave cylinders for clutch actuation are also prone to wearing the seals due to mud/water ingress, too.

If you wish to tow, the automatic is easier for things like reversing trailers around or getting things moving. The automatic towing a reasonable load, however, really needs to have overdrive locked out and stick to the 1:1 gear ratio of 3rd gear to avoid damage through the overdriven top gear. This will have significant fuel economy penalties on the highway. The manual, however, can even sit in the direct drive 5th gear all day much more happily without fear of damaging things through sitting at a high load in an overdriven gear.

This is where the confusion reigns. Some people fixate on the number of gears meaning the highway revs would be worse in the auto, other people notice that the auto has an overdrive top gear and the manual has a straight 1:1 top gear and therefore conclude the auto has longer gearing reducing the highway revs. The truth is they end up fairly similar in terms of overall gearing with the additional ratio for the manual splitting the difference around 3rd gear in the auto. Rather than relying on anyone else, I went back to first principles and calculated the speeds you would get in each gear for each transmission, assuming stock tyres. You need to multiply these speeds by the diameter difference to see what speeds you get for certain revs with different sized wheels, as per the tyre comparison table I prepared earlier.

This is a difference of about 10.9% for the manual, i.e. for a given set of revs a manual can crawl 10.9% slower when the converter is not slipping (or minimally slipping). This mostly is of benefit for engine braking down steep descents; the automatic will have to rely more heavily on the hill hold feature as the brakes of the car will have to make up the difference. In the real world both are fine but the manual is easier to sneak down a slope. The torque converter (again, more on that in a second) however helps going up slopes.

All pulled together for a Jimny, the converter diagram would have to look something a bit like this (modified after this excellent page using the Jimny specifics and some artistic license/engineering guesstimates):

When we first began selling manuals in the 1960s, vehicles were simple to maintain and there were relatively few models on sale. Today, electronics are a vital part of how your vehicle operates and there are more than 100,000 different variants of make/ model/ body type/ gearbox and engine.

So at Haynes, we knew that to continue offering a great product, we needed to take a brand-new approach - nothing less than a reinvention of the repair manual. With so many models on sale, it is impossible to strip down and rebuild enough cars to cover the market properly. Instead, Haynes Autofix is based upon workshop data with added DIY tutorials full of general tips and techniques.

Modern cars are equipped with dozens of sensors and ECUs (control units). Today, the first step when servicing a car is to plug a diagnostic tool into the OBD (on-board diagnostics) system of the vehicle.

Haynes Autofix is not a Haynes Manual. We want to be very clear about this, but we know that our new product will enable many thousands of you to continue maintaining your vehicle and troubleshooting problems in a DIY environment.

Note: Autofix is a worldwide product. You will sometimes see RHD (right hand drive) or LHD (left hand drive) mentioned. On location diagrams, we sometimes have LHD drawings only; but they do apply to RHD vehicles in a mirror image.

The experts at Haynes have compiled 50+ tutorials on tasks that range from changing the oil to replacing a timing belt. Use these DIY friendly guides alongside the data for your vehicle to complete the job correctly first time.

Both the automatic and the manual transmission offer reliable performance, speedy acceleration, and safe braking. Those who like off-roading or enjoy adventurous driving may prefer the five-speed manual transmission while those who prefer convenience may prefer the four-speed automatic.

In every way, the new Suzuki Jimny 5DR is optimized for performance, starting with the 1.5-litre petrol engine that offers both impressive performance and smart fuel efficiency. The high-rigidity ladder frame, designed for safer off-roading, also provides light, responsive performance on the road. Available ALLGRIP PRO 4WD helps you grip rain-soaked highways and gravel roads while available rear parking sensors help you navigate shopping in town.
