hard shifting when engine reaches normal temps... - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

when cold, it shifts fine like a brand new car would shift, but as the engine heats up to normal operating temperature, hard shifting occurs. just replaced the tranny fluid with a new one, clutch lining, pressure plate and release bearing are 6 months old, just used the car on sundays wherein the streets aren't busy....,... but still the problem persisted.

this problem occurs on a full stop especially on traffic days.

it would change gears fine if the car is moving.

Did these problems occur before or after the fluid change and clutch assembly work?

what car are you talking about? Model, suffix, etc.

car is a 1993 corolla 4 door sedan with 7AGE engine

first thing i did was replacing the gear oil... but to no avail

second i bought a surplus clutch master cylinder... ang guess what, it did solve the problem. but after days of driving, the problem came back again...

third, i bled it like there's no tomorrow... but again to no avail
