Hi,
I need help here,
I reciently bougt a 91 AWD Talon and I have problems grinding going into first.
Wheater I am at a dead stop or try really slow this car likes to grind big time going into first.
But its funney once I am into first the rest or gears shift fine and know grinding.
Know I just had the clutch fluid changed to sycro.. and we had a few dsmers try to adjust the clutch peddel which helped alittle but it still grinds into first.
Know is this a problem with the cluth or the tranney?

Thank You,
Shane

If all other gears are fine except 1st and the clutch is adjusted properly, no leaks, correct pedal height...etc then you can assume its your tranny.
