Default 940 2,3 turbo clutch problem

Hi, i have a 940 2,3 turbo whit m47, and having trouble whit the gear shifting. When the car is warm and i have drove a little, i almost cant get it in gears. The first and second gear is worst, it's almost as the clutch wont realise complitly. I have tried to vent the slave sylynder but it wont help. The clutch is almost fine when the car is cold but not always. Anyone know what it can be ?

check the fluid in the trans. Might have to flush that and put new fluid in.
the synchros might be worn.

could probably need put new fluid in the clutch also.
could also just be a worn out clutch.

could be an oil fouled clutch thats swollen up. I had this happen on a dry clutch BMW motorcycle once. transmission input shaft seal had failed, and spewed gearbox oil all over the clutch, it swelled up and wouldn't fully disengage (it also slipped under heavy throttle loads in taller gears and higher RPMs)

well, same as all clutch problems. you drop the transmission, and fix the clutch. if there's leaking seals, you fix them.
