Brandon..If you switch to an oil such as Redline MT90, some of that may go
away. Yes its cold the cold oil syndrome, but with the new synthetics and
the additive packages they have now days its the "cats meow" ...

Hi Guys

Not sure if anyone has experienced anything similar , but I find that
when I start up my car in the morning, for the first say 10 - 20 min of
driving, the second gear seems a bit "rough". What I means is that she
struggles a bit to go into gear, and like almost grinds into gear, but
after about 20 min of driving, its easier and just simply seems to slip
in..3rd not so bad...Does this have something to do with the oil being
cold...or do I have to worry about replacing my Clutch and pressure
plate? Or am I due for a Lube job?
