I know it sounds obviouse, but make sure your floormat hasn't crawled behind the clutch pedal. This has never happened to me and even of it it I wouldn't think my clutch had gone Edited by RobM on Sunday 16th September 13:06

There was a posting a couple month back regarding this. It seems that there are 2 types of trans. fluid, one makes the gear change harder when cold, the other harder when warm. I don't know the full in's and out's but certainly my Chim gets a bit harder to change gear if the engine is been running for 30 mins of more. I don't believe its a defect more of normal engine / gearbox thing!! Steve

chimp, don't panic, mine did this, I had the gearbox oil changed and it made a huge difference
