Why is it hard to shift into first and second gear?
It’s hard to shift into first and reverse because the clutch is not working properly. The pressure assembly actually traps the clutch disc between itself and the flywheel when the clutch pedal is not depressed and releases the clutch disc when depressed.
Why is my clutch pedal loose and won’t go into gear?
