The gears dont want to go in wat can it be

also does it matter if u change an automatic transmission to a manual transmission
do u also have to change the engine or it doesnt matter about the engine if u change the transmission?

Hi there,

Check that you have clutch fluid and that there is pedal pressure first, with the transmission chance the engine will not be a problem, you will have issues with the electrical loom, computers, drive shafts, exhaust, just to start with.

Hi there,

you should feel firm pressure when you push in the clutch all the way to the floor, if this is so, your problem may be a damaged clutch plate or a problem with in the transmission, to vote, click on the give feed back link in blue near my pic on my post.
