Try @ermax's suggestion. I know that it becomes extremely difficult to get it into any gear with even the slightest drag but in your case, confirmation would be good news. Do it with both a cold and hot clutch.
If it is dragging, then yes, first try bleeding. If that's not it then something else changed. I feel like even if adding throw to the clutch pedal helps, it would still be treating the symptom, not the cause.

Trouble Downshifting into 5th
Quote:
Just try bleeding. Any other issue it could be would require the removal of the tranny. I’ve snapped drive straps on pressure plates before which causes the mating surface to shift a little but that also causes a lot of vibration and it will drag so bad you will not be able to get it in any gear. How does your fluid look? If it’s dark then you most likely have a master or slave going bad which would allow air in the system. It could simply be worn out synchros in 5th and nothing to do with the clutch. A free solution to that would be to learn to double clutch. I drove an Integra for years with completely worn out synchros (all gears) and now years later I still can’t break the habit of double clutching. Not a bad habit to have though. |

https://www.amazon.com/Permatex-0912.../dp/B000HBM8HU whether I did it wrong or not, it hasn't given me any issues and I've put close to 10k miles on the clutch and at this point over 20-30 track days since 2017. I used the copper grease because i saw it was good to 1800F.
