Default Shifting Problems

1st - When I first start up the car, I'll have to push the clutch in all the way for it to even engage. After I drive for a bit, it engages at the normal place (I don't know what else you would call it), right about halfway or so pushed in.

2nd - When I shift into reverse, I sometimes get a slight grinding, even though it shouldnt be. This just happens once in awhile...

Anyone know what's going on or can give me any advice? Thanks.

-Matt

Ur first problem used to happen when my clutch started to get messed up. Once I changed it it went away.

2nd happens from time to time but a mechanic said it was normal.

#1 = leaky slave or clutch cylinder. OR the fact that the brake fluid in the clutch system has NEVER been changed.
