I can't put my car into any gears at all. I drove my car today and 4 hours later I tried to go out with my and I reliazed that I was not able to put the car into first gear. It won't even push up or down. Seems like it is jammed. But the strange thing is I can put it into gear when my car is turned off. So when the engine is off I can put it into any gear but not when the car is turned on. So now my car is left outside of my house I have no choice to get a truck to drag my car back to Toyota. Any idea what it could be?

Thanks....

Dood this happened to me!
I had this guy install my new clutch and when it was all put together i tried driving it out and it wouldn't go into gear at all when started. But if it was off it would go into gear. So i just shut it off and put it in gear and then started it up. I drove like 10-15ft in first gear and stopped and tried switching gears and it worked after that. I have no idea why it did that but its working now. Also you might wanna watch out for the stick not going into gear easily when you down shift. Every now and then i'll have to slam it into gear as hard as i can when i down shift cause it acts like its locked up or some ****. Also try pumping your clutch a sh!t load before you put it in gear, tends to work for me sometimes also. And check your clutch fluid!!!
