hi-
for the past couple weeks i've experienced trouble getting my car to shift into gear. it would require a lot of arm strength to get into first and reverse and i was met with resistance driving and going into higher gears. this morning, i couldn't get it into first or second gear and have been starting in third (you can imagine the smell of the clutch!) sometimes it goes into second but not often. i'm wondering if this is a clutch problem, or if i need to do a fluid change, or what? i bought the car used and there aren't many records. i have over 220K and have no idea if the clutch has been replaced or if a flush has ever been done. can anyone help me out? thanks!
