So I got a new car and the transmission doesn't like to go into second sometimes when shifting up and will never go into second on a downshift unless I start to put it in first and then pop it in second. Reverse doesn't like to go in and grinds sometimes and I usually just start it in reverse. Then 5th gear grinds. The other thing is when the clutch is in all the way to the floor if the car is in reverse it will move on it's own without me even giving it gas. The dealership is buying me a new jacks transmission but I was wondering if this was a clutch issue too. Like maybe it was installed wrong. I have already bled the clutch to get any air out and that didn't do anything. The clutch is an exedy cerametallic twin disk. Any ideas? Thanks, Braden

 

Have you tried adjusting you clutch pedal?

 

It sounds like the CMC isn't adjusted right, so even with full pedal engagement, the clutch isn't disnegaging.

 

wait, you're getting the dealer to buy you a new tranny even with an aftermarket clutch?

 

Yes, I bought the car with all these parts and was told it ran perfect. Thats why theyvare paying for a new one. What do you mean the cmc isn't adjusted right? What is the cmc?

 

you need to adjust your clutch pedal.

 

Would that cause it to grind? I thought that would only effect the car not going into gear.
