does anyone knows what causes this
well i got a 5spd when am shifting up it goes fine but i notice when am comin to a stop and down shift into 2nd..i hear a clerkkkkk sound at any speed that i try to down shift and i hit the clutch before i change the gear so its not on my path...and the car doesnt rev or 2nd doesnt slow the car down it just keep rolling...there is no compression and the most would happen is the car would jerk jerk then it keeps rolling and for me to shift into 1st ill have to wait till am going like 15mph...and it would do the samething...any help is appreciated

see i dont down shift often but sometimes i like to play with the gears and feel good...but no i dont have that high rev...its just i dont kno why compression doesnt build up in 2nd to really hold the car back
