so the dealership told us a clutch was bad and being the only thing not covered under warranty and at 1500 bucks we fixed it ourselves.

turns out... clutch was fine.

new slave cylinder and clutch master cylinder and it runs fine.

3 days later i hear a high pitched whistle mostly in 4th gear and every once in awhile it doesnt wanna go into 3rd.
2 days after that i was on the highway and in 5th gear and it just pops out into neutral...

i need to know whats going on.

i think that i may need to add gear oil because i dont think the guy added any when he changed out the clutch.
could that be the problem?

and how exactly do i add the fluid? no clue as to where to add or check it....

is there a manual somewhere?.... cant find one anywhere online.

Raise the front of the car. Place floor jacks under car.
Slide under the left front of the car ...stop at the transmission......look up.......you will see a drain plug at the bottom of the transmission.....about 3 inches above the plug, you will see another plug.......it is here that you can check on the amount of oil in the transmission, plus you can add transmission fluid (75/85 gear oil) at this location.
Very easy project
Just be safe......use the jack stands

I had the 5th gear pop out thing happen on a 85 Golf and it was low trans fluid.
Get it fixed FAST since I lost the gear on a trip.

Good luck
