I wanted to throw this out because it's an issue I've had since winter left Alabama this year.
When I first start my car cold, (although ambient temps may be in the 80's+), my clutch allows me to shift into first or reverse with no problems.
After driving for 10 minutes or so, (Car fully warmed up), I can't shift from neutral into reverse or first without Forcing it/Grinding it into gear. (I've tried pumping it also, no Luck).
I have the Stainless clutch hose. The clutch reservoir is not losing fluid. The fluid was just over 2 years old and Almost clear.
When the car is Warmed up, (I.E., I can't shift into reverse/first from neutral without grinding gears), I tend to down shift into first before I stop at red lights and stay there until the light turns green.
I don't have any reduced clutch loss at Long red lights. If you know what I'm saying.
EDIT: Why would I get reduced clutch travel when the car is warm... (Now)?
Any thoughts?
