shifting tranny/clutch issues

04-16-2004, 01:31 AM

just wondering what the problem is. well no real problem right now, but i'm just wondering what is worn out.
my car has over 180k on the original clutch and tranny. so now when i'm stationary i can shift into gears WITHOUT using the clutch. i'm sure the clutch is definitely ready to go. do you guys agree? btw, i'm going to replace the clutch this sunday.
thanks for any info
fyi, my tranny hardly ever grinds when shifting. could "grinding" be because of the clutch? or just worn out syncros?

i guess at 180 grand it is not unreasonable for the clutch to be worn out.

find it, **** it, forget it
