Gear Change Problems

[ForTheLoveOfMat]

Hi, can anyone point me in the right direction, as to why im getting stuck in first, then unable to get second gear, usually first thing in morning until car gets going, just had front n rear dif, gear box oil changed, would this have anything to do with it, impreza 1.5 r

 

Thank you

Gearbox oil would be my first guess. Has the problem started since the oil change? If so, are you sure the correct type of oil has been used and it has been filled to the correct level?

I would agree with Adam if it's just started after the oil change.

thanks, I did check they would use the rite oil before I took it in, best get back to the garage and see wat they say :-)

I would mate. Let us know how you get on if it's all right oil and level few other thing's it could be but not cheap fixes :( But will hope it's what Adm said :)

the fact that it sorts itself out once warmed up would have me agreeing with the previous comments - fluid related, hopefully the garage that did the work will sort it without a fuss

All sorted now, they changed the oil for a thinner, but same spec oil.  Thanks for your input
