All,
My 1966 Corsa 4 speed shifts nicely in all gears until warm (approximately 10 miles), then first and second gear are very difficult to get into. Any ideas?
Any assistance is appreciated

Re: Difficulty shifting first and second gear when warm
I’m starting to think maybe clutch related. It seems I only have an inch from bottom when the Clutch starts engaging… Could that be a possible issue?

Re: Difficulty shifting first and second gear when warm
On my old Jetta tdi, this happened at 280,000 miles. Shifting into first or second became nearly impossible. Turned out to be both the clutch (worn down) and the release bearing.
