shifter doesn't go into gear
 

okay im sorry i looked at all the threads got many different answers, i just got back from the shop , just got my radiator done, he also put brake fluid in my clutch. i drove back from the halfway home the shifter wouldn't go into gear , i don no y, theres brake fluid under the drivers side, i cant drive the car at all, please i need help,

There is a leak. You probably need to change the clutch line. Then bleed it again.

wouldn't the clutch stay to the floor, if it was the clutch line

check the fluid level.top it off than bleed it.

the fluid it all the way on top, i havent bled it yet but i guess that my best option right now

your correct.if there was a leak...resulting to the resevoir being empty, the clutch should have gone dead(no pressure).check for leaks then replace the lines IF that seems to be the problem.

r u saying that there is fluid under the pedals driping or is this on th outside.?state clear what the problem really is.is there leaks or isit just that you cant go into gear.

sorry, okay right outside behind my driver side front tire, theres like a little bit of oil on the ground i think it would be because of me opening the cap on the reservoir, and the shifter does not go into gear at all.

also if any has the how to: to bleed the clutch link i can give that a try, so i can atleast drive to work tom. thank you

hey when that happened to me i had to replace synchros in the tranny

how much did that run you?

okay so i started the car today morning before i went to work, before i satrted it, shifter was going into gear very easily, so i took the chance of driving to work which is about a 40 min drive. Im able to drive the car but it is still kinda hard sometimes to put into gear, like 1st is the hardest to get into 2nd is pretty easy, 3rd is easy but sometime i feel a light grind, and the reast are easy, im going to the bleed the lines today and adjust the clutch cuz it was pretty low from before. any suggestions/advice are welcome.

wat was the price of the fix?:confused:

I was wrong about the leak - if it was leaking badly your pedal would indeed be on the floor.

When it's acting up, does the shifter go into gear with the engine off?

Sounds to me like a clutch hydraulic problem. Slave and/or master cylinder.
