Lately, I've noticed it's more difficult to get into 1st or 2nd gear. There's a sound when I listen under the car that makes a random sound similar to a part of the exhaust near the front of the transmission making a light clunk against something. Or something in the front internal part of the tranny that sounds like it interrupts idle every few couple of seconds or so. My rpm at idle varies occasionally about 75-100 rpm - this coincides with the sound under the car.

Driving around is fine but 2nd gear seems to take more time and effort than it used to...3rd and up drop right in with no problem. First is just plain stiffer to get into gear.

(I had my clutch done about 2 years ago and have probably put 50k on it)

How many miles on the tranny? Who installed the clutch? Change tranny fluid lately? What all was replaced on the clutch redo?

I got the same problem.
I looked at my hydrolics and found that my clutch slave cylinder is leaking. I am getting it replaced as we speak. I'll let you know.

However, RETed suggest it might be a bad pilot bearing. Let's cross our fingers that it's not!
