Symptoms:
Driving for 45 minutes in peak hour traffic, lots of stop starting, heaps of gear changes etc. By the time i get to the city and am stopped at a set of lights, Im finding it difficult to engage first gear. In some cases i have to slot it into 4th then make my way back to first. Taking off is fine so i doubt there is a problem with the clutch itself. Seems to happen after it heats up, e.g. 45 minutes of stop start traffic etc.
Note: Driving around locally short trips etc, i have no problems engaging first gear.
Has anyone else experienced this? If so whats the fix? I called Repco and they dont sell master or slave cylinders.
Help is appreciated.
Cheers,
