Hey there - this will be my first post on this forum requesting tech advice, so here goes:
I am having some downshifting difficulty, mainly between 5 and 4th, 4th and 3rd. Not talking about false neutrals either. Rather, when I engage the clutch and step down on the shift lever, the lever will NOT move - until I give the engine a quick rev, let out the clutch, pull the clutch then try again, at which point the shift lever will operate normally. I lubed my clutch splines about 13,500 mi ago, did not check clutch plates at that time. Was gibt? Is it time for a clutch, or god forbid, something more involved...
