I have a 2005 Hyundai Tiburon GT 2.7L. I bought the car with a little over 35,000 miles. The first day I had it the car gave me problems with the clutch. The dealership towed the car in and replaced the whole clutch assemply including the fly wheel. The first week I had the car back, when I would start the car it would not go into any of the gears, so I would have to turn the car off, put it into gear and then restart the car. After having the car a month, I noticed a loud ticking noise when I had the car in neutral but not pressing the clutch in. When I would press the clutch in the clicking noise would go away. I took it back to the dealership and they said that they could not find anything wrong with the car. Now it has been 4 months and I have noticed that the car is having a hard time shifting into first gear when you first start the car and take your first stop to shift back into gear. I dont try to force into gear, I will lift my foot off of the clutch and press back in and the car will go into first gear but it grinds every now and then. Can you please help me? I am taking the car to another dealership tomorrow to see if they can see what the problem might be.

It sounds like the clutch asssy wasn't done right or defective parts

Could also need bleeding the slave and adjusting free play and pedal height.
