Difficulty going into 1st and 2nd gear when car is warmed up
Been searching the forum and online for anyone with a similar problem as mine but have not found anything
When the car is warmed up, after reaching a stop, I become locked out of 1st gear and sometimes 2nd gear. For whatever reason, if I go to any other gear and then return back to 1st, it goes into gear. This does not happen all the time but probably 1/3 of the time I come to a stop. When the car is cold, the problem does not exist. Any ideas as to what the solution or problem would be? I have tried adjusting the reverse lockout plate within the shifter but that did not seem to fix the issue. Planning on trying a tranny fluid swap since I haven't changed my tranny fluid in a few years. For reference, I have about 55k miles, about 5k miles since my ACT HDSS clutch kit w/ streetlite flywheel has been installed. Daily driven. 1 track day since the ACT clutch was installed. Stock drivetrain with the exception of the ACT clutch |

It sure sounds like that "shifter gate plate", or whatever it's called, is out of whack.
I'm gonna summon our shifter expert, ol @Ultramaroon for his thoughts. humfrz |

Is the "shifter gate plate" the same thing as the reverse lockout plate? If so, I did try adjusting that.
Posted this on some gt86 facebook groups and a couple people are stating they have this same problem with their ACT clutch so might look like its a somewhat common occurrence with ACT clutches But im open to any advice for a solution Thanks in advance |

It's most likely the clutch. Have it checked by the person who installed it.
