I drove my 97 boxster manual tranny last night. On my way home, I drove it spiritedly and all of a sudden my gear cannot go in! Had to depress clutch several times but still 1st gear cant go in. Seems like clutch had a problem.

I had the car towed back to my place. I think the fluid level is low or something or it might need bleeding since it came from a paint shop and was there for like 3 months.

Where can I find levels for fliuds or add clutch fluid? Upon searching the net, I only found where the bleeding plug for the clutch is located (underneat the car, at the tranny side) but not on where to check fliud levels for the clutch or at least on where to add fluids.

Btw, I had recently replaced my pressure plate, clutch disc and release bearing last 5-6 months ago. Brand new. New fluids as well. I had the job done by a local imported cars dealership here in my area. I drive the car very seldom.

What do you think happened guys? Or where can I add fluids for the clutch?

Thank you for reading.
