Hard to get in gear
Hard to get in gear
I have a 04 g35 i got a problem with the transmission. Theres times when getting into gears is really hard and i have to use force and pressure to get it into gear. I realized this after i got my clutch changed like less than 5k miles ago! They changed the gearbox fluid. at times getting into gear is really smooth and no problem!! and others out of no where is hard i thought it was due to the fact that i wasnt pressing the clutch all the way in but when i do it still hard. Can you guys help me out??
Are you having trouble with only some gears or all of the gears?
Sometimes I have a little issue putting the car in 1st gear when in full stop, usually after the car is already been driving for a while.
How much is your mileage?

Where the replacement steps properly followed in the FSM?
