grinding going into 1st, 2nd and R...more also...

1. When I go into 1st, 2nd and reverse, it's not only very difficult and requires a lot of force to move the shifter, but there is a grinding feel/noise doing it. Every other gear is as smooth as butter.


2. When clutch is FULLY DEPRESSED in, at a stop, and the shifter is in R or 1st, there is a vibrating noise from the engine as if it is trying to engage the transmission. I don't believe it's supposed to be doing that when the clutch is depressed. It's as if the clutch isn't actually disengaging the transmission.

When moved to N, it stops entirely.


3. When moving in 1st, 2nd or R and I attempt to move the shifter into N from any of those positions, it is VERY DIFFICULT to do, and if I do manage it, there is a VERY LOUD grinding noise between the gear position and the N position.





Are all of these problems related? Does anyone know what they could be?


I brought her in yesterday. Hopefully will hear back Monday.


So now I'm stuck driving a camry.
