Hard to shift gears on a manual

If you're noticing grinding or difficulty selecting gears, your car is telling you something. Here's what usually causes it, what you can safely check, and when to call a mechanic.

Likely causes

  • Low clutch fluid
  • Failing slave or master cylinder
  • Worn synchros
  • Clutch not disengaging fully

“Book an inspection; don't force gears.”
