Default problem shifting

I have a problem shifting my cari in high rpm's but it goes in without grinding. It shifts fine in low rpm's. Also when im rolling backwards in my driveway and i have it in first gear i rev up my car slowly and my car stops and starts to roll forward but the clutch is down the hole time. Hopefully somebody can tell me whats wrong with my car.

I'm not sure you asked a question. You have a problem shifting at high rpm's but it goes in without grinding? Okay so then what is the problem then? As for your other question do you mean your clutch is catching even when your all the way on it?

it sounds like youir pressure plate is going bad, or you have air in your clutch fluid line. i would bleed the system real quick and check for bubbles, and if that doesn't solve the problem then you might want to consider replacing the clutch. they're not too expensive on ebay if you want to attempt this project yourself and save some $. also, if you do replace the clutch make sure you resurface the flywheel (or upgrade the flywheel at the same time). if you take it to a shop it will cost around $700.

My clutch acts up when the weather changes. Like lately, on warm days it does what GsRiNtEeGrA14 is describing as "Shifting without the clutch" but on cooler days it drives fine. As the days stay consistantly warm, it gets better.
