Transmission help
Well I was driving to Tennessee from North Carolina. Now my transmission feels really, really, really smooth. It never felt this smooth before. The transmission has 99k miles on it now. So I have a feeling it might be going bad. It doesn't grind and I don't have a hard time getting into any gear at all. The only problem I have with it is it feels way to smooth. I got the fluid changed recently with OEM fluid when I noticed how smooth it was to try to fix it I guess but it feels the same. Should I be worried? What could have caused the sudden new feel in the transmission?

I've recently discovered that I can move through 3rd and 4th gear easily by simply manipulating the under-hood shifter linkage where my solid shifter bushings are installed. When installing them about 8 or 9 months ago I don't remember being able to move them that easily but again that was a little less than a year ago so I very easily may be wrong. Could it be the clutch? I've also noticed the clutch doesn't feel a grabby when taking off normally as it use to. It's an Exedy twin disk and it's been in there for about 2 years now. But then again I'm not use to driving on hills and mountains or my mind is playing tricks on me and I'm just being paranoid.
