ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Hard shifting into 1st

    Guys,
    Let's see if you have any suggestions before i take the car to the shop. When i first start the car and try shifting into 1st, it's really hard. It feels like it doesn't want to get into gear, at all. I've even tried just shifting to
    2nd or 3rd and same problem. If i force it hard, it will finally go into first. After i'm driving for a while, it seems to be ok. Easier shifting into 1st however not as smooth as a new manual car. Clutch is fully pressed when trying to shift and get it into 1st. Any suggestions? I want to get your opinions and suggestions before taking it to a mechanic shop. Your suggestions would help. Thanks!

    1st - Check the clutch reservoir if the fluid level is ok

    2nd - I would then check the manual transmission fluid if full.

    3rd - Change the manual transmission fluid (with fresh fluid). It can sometimes make it better but no guarantees.

      If doing those things JDMDriver suggested don't help at all, then it's likely that your transmission is damaged.
