Yesterday When I tried shifting gears it was very hard to get out of 1 and 2 gear unless the key is turned off. There are no transmission or other abnormal souds. Could I be low on gear oil? or does the shift linkeage need adjustment. thank you

hello,

The problem you are having could be multiple things, it could be that your clutch is going bad, or your throw out bearing is going bad.

If you feel your low on gear oil, you can check it to see what level your at, and if its low add some and see how it does.
