Hello fellow 02 owners.
I was wondering if someone might be able to help me with my issue.
I recently replaced my clutch last week. I used a 228mm clutch and a 323 longer throw out bearing with my getrag 245 5 speed. After putting it all back together and bleeding the slave cylinder, the car stalls as if in gear after starting in neutral.I could start the car, put it in gear but the car won't really move. I tried leaving it in neutral after starting, then after I let off the clutch pedal slowly, the car will move as if in gear and then stall.
I left the car at my uncles shop, he has a spare lift that he lent me since I can only go there after work hours. I also noticed that it was a little hard to get in to 2nd gear and noticed now that it won't go to 5th gear.
I've tried searching online, the closest thing I could find online was a guy with an e46 who had a similar issue, all he did was drain the fluid, put cheap fluid, ran the car on a lift for about 10 min to flush the system, and then put new fluid and it worked.
Does anyone have any experience with this that can help me diagnose the issue?
Anyone with good transmission/clutch experience that can chime in?
