One day last week I couldn't shift into 1st gear while driving. I tried to let up on the clutch a couple of times, which sometimes worked. I then tried starting in another gear 2nd or 3rd with the same result. This happened the last 10 minutes of a 45 minute drive though some mild hilly roads. It only happened then and hasn't happened since.
I checked the little clutch reservoir (with brake fluid) but its level was OK.
Can anyone tell me what and why?
thanks,
