Okay here is the deal.... I just installed a new clutch, pp, pilot bearing, throw out bearing. I've done 4 or 5 clutch jobs and never had an issue. The clutch install went nicely but the only issue I'm having is that the tranny will not go into gear (it will but its a pain) but from a dead stop only. But once its in gear, and i'm driving it shifts like butter...
Tomorrow I'm going to re-bleed the system and adjust the clutch pedal to see if its a disengaging issue.. Anyone have any ideas? Yes I searched...
Thanks..

My stock clutch was crap so I had adjusted the pedal to my taste for the time being with the old clutch. After installing my new clutch it was a pain to get into gear but was 100% perfect once I started driving. So I knew it was something small. So I adjusted the clutch pedal out to the stock settings (12mm nut on the back of the clutch pedal). Set it up to where the clutch releases in the perfect spot and now the gears are smooooothhh like butta... LOL
I hope that explains it as I just got out of bed..

Yup. Surprised I didn't think of the misadjusted clutch, since I had that problem on mine a few times(!). Thanks!
