Many years ago, maybe back in 2001, I replaced my clutch with the Centerforce version and added the stainless braided clutch line. At some point replaced the clutch master and slave, only used GT LMA fluid. My clutch reservoir is full but I must admit it's been years since the last flush.
Lately I've had to rely on the D since my daily is in the shop, and I'm finding it tough to switch gears the longer I drive (hot engine, middle of the day, mix of city and interstate. Especially going from a higher gear into first when entering traffic. It's like there's a lot of resistance I have to push through which sometimes results in grinding. When the car is hot it's almost impossible to get into reverse without grinding so I stop the engine and start it in reverse. 3rd, 4th, 5th, not really an issue at any time. Double pumping the clutch doesn't always help.
Thinking all I need is a good flush. Right? Pedal feels great and not spongy but I'm not sure what else it could be.
