The links don't work. TTT for ya. I don't know the answer to your problem, but I would assume that it is (as you probably already know) time for a new tranny, or at least a rebuild.

i think i read something about this not too long ago, i wish i knew more info to help ya out but thats wierd

seems like some linkage got bent up in there, have you been shifting harder then normal lately?

probably wouldnt make a difference since u would still be able to pull it out of gear but have you checked the clutch cable. also shine a flashlight into the hole where the clutch fork goes and have someone push the clutch in and out. i would start with simple checks like that b4 you go and rip it all apart.

i bought a used trans locally to hopefully rebuild with stronger internals for when my stock t5 craps out (1st and 2nd wine )

i got under the car and the cable is fine. i ended up getting it towed in. it cant be a clutch problem because it engages and disengages. i will find out more tomorrow when they call me. thanks guys

its the shifter "dogs" they are in the 1-2 and 3-4 shift forks between the actual gears. it happened to me in 3rd, i forced it out, but you could break a shift fork doing that. real easy fix if you want to open it up. i remember i bought a new "dog" from somebody on here for like $5.
