pls help me guys. thanks in advance.
sir,
does it happen everytime the cluth pedal "won't release" from 1st-2nd gear? or once in awhile?
parang hindi transmission eh. more like the clutch master baka may hangin sa system or dirty fluids. try replacing the cluth fluid first, then check the cluth pedal springs...
