With instant and clean backward drive, the Pontiac Sunfire Reverse Idler Gear simply slides between transmission shafts and flips rotation without fuss. This little component is respected by drivers because of its solid forged steel build. The Reverse Idler Gear has gained a reputation for shrugging off the hard daily shifts and weekends away. Reversing the revolution will be quieter. Pontiac has made a manual-equipped coupe, sedan, or convertible smart. The idler gear will only engage when you select the reverse module. So, when you are going forward, it stays quiet and disengaged. For that reason, there are fewer friction losses. Overall, it is a sensible arrangement, especially since it will prevent cabin noise. What is more, it will save on fuel. More efficiency and smarter backward technology making are efficient Pontiac's hallmark. The Reverse Idler Gear design applied in the original Sunfire editions, 1995, up to the last, 2005 Sunfire coupe, is the same, so owners can simply replace the Reverse Idler Gear without looking for odd part numbers. Because Pontiac fans count on this Reverse Idler Gear to preserve factory feel even after high-mileage rebuilds, it is like no other. Since the Reverse Idler Gear only meshes for a moment during parking maneuvers, the gear teeth stay sharp. Thus, the Sunfire transmission is less likely to grind and the driver enjoys smoother clutch releases. The safety aspect also improves as a healthy Reverse Idler Gear will eliminate the pop-out burst which could catch a new Sunfire driver by surprise. The part fits five-speed boxes found in both GT trims and base lines, allowing every Pontiac to confidently roll back on a hill without any rollback jitters. This factory-tuned component preserves the balanced torque curve engineered into the drivetrain, protecting the synchros and bearings for extended service life, according to owners. Regardless of whether they are bolted into a restored Pontiac show car or a daily-driven Pontiac commuter, the gear transmits every Sunfire feeling agile and predictable when entering reverse.
