Hey I have a 1992 Maxima Se and when I shift gears it’s sometimes stiff and won’t go in without a struggle wondering if anyone has dealt and fixed this with maybe a clutch adjustment or something like that, thanks for the help!

check if the linkage to the trans is binding

When was the last time transmission oil was replaced?

I’ve only had my Maxima since this January so I need to probably do that, I have checked my transmission fluid maybe 3 times now by dipping my finger in it, it’s a yellowish clear colour, doesn’t smell burnt, and doesn’t seem low.

Thanks how do I check if it’s binding? Just under the car where then shifter goes into the transmission? Sorry I’m just learning about these things, that’s why I have u guys for help. Thanks a lot for the help!

Just change the tranny oil as you have no idea for how long it has been there.
You will see from the drain plug magnet if there are any excessive metal shaving in the box.
