Hi again,

I have a problem that sometimes when I shift to 3rd from 2nd, it gets stuck and I can't shift into 3rd. So, I either go back down to 2nd or skip to 4th.

Since this doesn't always happen, do you guys think I should take it into the repair shop? Or is there a quick fix I can do? I went to the mechanic yesterday and had them do a general overview, and they said my car was in good condition.

Also, while I have your attention, it seems while I'm 2nd gear around 10-20km/hr, my car starts lugging when I let off the gas in slow traffic. Should I let the gas off slower or do I have to have my clutch in?

The third gear problem is wierd and as of now I have no real suggestions. The second gear issue in traffic is easily solved, you are letting the rpm's bog down to low. If you are creeping along like that put it in neutral.
