A couple of times my car has been parked on a hill upwards. And when starting the car, it was difficult shift to a gear?I was able ti yank it into 1st gear and it was fine throughout the day. But now this morning, it won't go into gear at all.

Does it shift with the vehicle off? If so, you either have a hydraulic clutch issue or the clutch disc itself has failed.

No it doesnt shift at all with the car on or off.I was thinkingof the clutch because now it takes no effort at all to press down. Does it also have to do with any liquid in the clutch system cause it only did this when I parked it uphill?Have any idea how much will the repairs are on clutche's?

Hi there,

If it is a clutch problem, you would be able to shift into gears with engine OFF.

Since you are not able to do so under both conditions, I would suspect either shift cable, linkages or a fault in the trans shift forks.
