I have recently had a new clutch 3 weeks ago but when doing a long journey and being in the same gear for 20-30 miles. I stopped off then couldnt get the car back in gear. I had to turn off the car wait a few minutes and then everything was ok until i had to stop and change gear again. Please help

This has been done at a garage, my worry is that they will say this is a new problem. I am not sure on hydraulics or the bleeding. Was wondering if this could be their fault or could this be a new problem. Cheers

No good presuming anything, work on facts, get the hydraulics checked out first.
