2004 6speed transmission stiff???
Hey this is Jackie - George will be here later.
Purchased 04 Z06 vette with 1500 miles. 6 speed transmission is stiff. REALLY STIFF. I cannot get to 5-6 without two hands. Is this normal? They guy at the dealership said it was not broken in. Something about previous owner keeps in garage and did not drive so it is not broken in. Does this sound right.
I am not a ditzy woman driver who cannot drive a standard. It is so stiff I have started in 3rd thinking I was in 1st.
I do love the clutch. I can start in 3rd without problems ;-) but how far can you go in 3rd and 4th?
Today is the first day. Going back to dealer in 2 days to finalize. We are going to ask them to service the transmission and check it out. It is 4 years old with low mileage so you would think there is no problem.
I think I know why she (previous owner was woman) did not drive it; she could not get it out of 3rd.
