1st-2nd & Reverse hard to shift, WTF?! "06' LX 5spd"

[Chuck Chainz]

My wifes civic has a hard time going into 1-2 and, itll, its really hard to select those gears, car only has 120k on the odometer. Anyone else encounter this? Im thinking shift cables, Im hoping its the cables since our warranty just expired.

any insight?

Your wife needs a miata in her life.

Have you check the transmission fluid?

Has that trans fluid been changed regularly

[Chuck Chainz]

About 3 changes ago
But still persisted

I'm thinking that this little son of a bitch might have something to do with my hard gear selection.

Who's the moron who left a bolt out? Lol

[Chuck Chainz]

Lol, wasn't me. I was looking for where it went but no dice.

I spent a couple hits trying to fish it out, then I just tied zip tie around it and pulled up with a screwdriver.
