The transmission is also ok but because of shifter and clutch there is jerk in low speed
Not smooth drive in low speed
But when it get above 50 km speed then the drive is smooth with good acceleration

ok. if the syncros worn is there also a sound when we are accelerating the car. because in 1,2 and 3 gear there is a sound when I am accelerating. and its suddenly disappear when i am shifting in 4.
i checked this sound its not when the car is in neutral.
