help ###...shifting problems..messed up tranny?? =(

[vroomdsm]

hey guys im new to dsm...bought a tsi not too long ago
anyways..when the car is cold shifting is really smooth like butter
and have no problems..when it gets warm when driving for around 30 minutes
it gets harder to put into gear..like i have to jam it in or pump the clutch in order
for the gear to go in..i have been driving the car like this for 2 months now..
its really tiring on my leg ..i changed the slave cylinder..it has a new clutch..
i have not changed the master yet though because i dont think its broken..no leak
or anything..as i said when the car is cold it works perfect when it gets warm..gets harder to put into gear...anyone having this kind of problem? thanks a bunch

i bleed the slave..the feel of the clutch changes too as i drive more..when car is cold..and have not been driven..it feels smooth..then driving it more..it gets more stiffer

What kind of fluid are you using in the tranny? Sounds like you might need a thicker blend.

 

[vroomdsm]

im not to shure what oil it has on the tranny..jst got it couple months ago..you guys think it could be
the oil?? transmission oil getting to thin when gets warm??

 

[Jeff99GS]

Have you even checked the tranny fluid? You might just be LOW. The fluid could be OLD and thin.

not yet..i was trying to figure it out while it was no the hoist i could not find it dumb me
so i have to take out the pan rite? no drain plug?

 

[Jeff99GS]

There should be a drain plug on the bottom of the tranny its a large 24mm bolt head. And a filler plug on the front side of the tranny, It has a 17mm bolt head. Remove both plugs and let it drain out. Then replace the plugs and Re-fill it with syncromesh or a thicker mix(blend) if you perfer.

No Pan, unless you have an automatic.

Here is a link with suggestions on what types of fluid people perfer.
