Trans/Clutch Problem?

[eclipsed123]

I was driving today and noticed that sometimes while driving the car feels like it hits a brick wall and the shifter shakes violently while in gear. I can let off downshift and everything is fine. The car has been sitting for about 5 months but the clutch, flywheel, and pressure plate were replaced about 1 year ago. It doesn't happen all the time just every now and then. Any ideas of what my problem could be?

Have you changed the fluid itself in the tranny? How many miles is on the tranny?

Fluid was changed at the same time as the cluth, flywheel, and pressure plate was upgraded. Not sure if the original transmission is still in the car but there are approx 170K on the car.

The trans could be the problem thats a lot of miles.

What do you mean by "hit a brick wall"? Power loss?

The car doesn't want to accelerate at all I always have to take it out of gear then put it back in and the shifter shakes uncontrolably when it happens.

Sounds like a transmission problem not the clutch. The mileage you have is about the mileage where your going to be due for a new transmission/rebuild.
