Hey all,
I know this question has been asked a million times but I can't for the life of me find a situation quite like this.
For one, the car is a 92 TSi with 85k Original miles and the car is entirely stock. Not one mod. The trans is original, the clutch is original.
I've had DSMs that needed adjustment, new clutches, etc but this is a bit weird.
Essentially, when shifting into gear, it almost "half" goes into gear. You push it in, it stops, and you force it in again and it's actually in gear. The "first" half will pop out if you try to drive with it in that position.
It doesn't grind. No gear in particular is worse, they all do it. Temperature doesn't seem to matter. It's a tad easier when warm. No strange noises.
Clutch engagement is pretty high.
I did the clutch drag test and it doesn't move until 200rpm before rev limiter.
Also, it doesn't slip under load.
Any thoughts?
