Very hard to shift - 12/15/2005 12:41:38 AM    clipzegal   Posts: 1 Joined: 12/15/2005 Status: offline I have a 1998 eclipse. I have owned the car since 2000 and have never had any problems with it. The past week it has gotten harder and harder to Shift gears, its a 5 speed. It takes me nearly 3 minutes to get it in reverse. The weather has been cold here in the midwest and I have let the car warm up. The longer I drive it during the day does not improve the shifting.I can come to a stop light and when the light changes to go, I sit there because I cant get it in gear.. Before I go to a mechanic and probably get taken advantage of being a female is there anything I can check for myself? Any replies would be greatly appreciated. < Message edited by clipzegal -- 12/15/2005 12:44:01 AM > Post #: 1
