So I just picked up my car from the dealership for
some maintenance, and in my zeal to be driving the
1.8t again, I powershifted from first into second -
when I stopped the car, the shifter felt mushy and
slid straight out of 2nd to neutral with almost no
resistance and I wasn't pushing on the clutch.
I dunno - the shifter seems "higher" now, and it seems
like it slides very easily out of gear, even when the
clutch isn't depressed.
Did I screw something up? Or am I just paranoid?

Re: tranny help? (superflyc)

it should be REALLY easy to get out of gear unless you have very little torque on the tranny. I've done it tons of times, you just kinda match rpms. You can actually put it in gear sometimes too if your clutch was to go out.
