I can barely shift my T-5. It takes a great deal of force to put her into gear now. The throwout bearing used to squeal until I adjusted it back a little. After I adjusted it that first time then I would have to adjust it every couple weeks.

I tried bringing it back some more but I am as far forward as I can get on the clutch cable where it hooks up with the clutch fork.
When the car is shut off I can shift without the clutch going from 1-2-3-4 and 5th. Does anyone know what's up with this? Thanks
