Hi everyone.
Just got a 2004 RX8 with 36k Miles. Clutch was just replaced 3k miles ago. The car was sitting in a driveway for 2 years. I drove it from Chicago back to Phoenix with minimal issues a couple weeks ago. Now when I try to shift into first gear from a stop ill push the clutch in as I always have and the car will refuse to go into gear without a lot of force. Same goes with Reverse, reverse is actually even harder to get into. Sometimes the problem will remedy itself if I pump the clutch 3-5 times, but this still doesn't seem right. any insight would be beneficial. Thanks All!!

 

My guess is you need to bleed your clutch line,you likely have a leak letting air in somewhere.
