for some reason when I took my car out it was hard to put into gear because the clutch didn't seem to release the entire way when I depressed the pedal. May have to let the dealer handle this one - hopefully under warranty of some sort. ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEAS?

btw - new oem clutch - new upper trans case (snap ring fix) - new master and slave cylinders - clutch fluid 99% full.


thanks.
 
Are you sure that it's a clutch fault and not cold tranny oil? You may check this on a plain ground: Press clutch to the ground, put in 1st gear, release brake and hand brake. Does the car move forward? If so you may really have clutch problem - maybe with the throw out bearing.

Another test: Is it easier to change gears when the engine is off?
