I dont know if this has anything to do with the sudden problem, but I never had a problem with my clutch before. My car is at 190k. Last week I changed the tranny fluid because of rough shifting and occasional grinding. It fixed everything now my tranny shifts are all smooth. NIght and day difference. But today I ran into a new problem. I parked, got into my car started it pressed down on the clutch and the clutch wouldnt disengage because it wouldnt let me shift into any gears...so I turned of the car shifted into gear and it worked from there on. Again..later today I stopped at a light pressed down on the clutch and it wouldnt let me shift so I turned the car off then shifted and started it back up and it worked fine. What seems to be causing this problem?

The clutch doesn't get stiff. it will just stop letting me shift. today for example I was in traffic shifting to second gear and the shifted wouldn't go into second gear. I had to shut off the car, come to a complete stop then shift. the clutch does seem to squeak now when I press down on it...doesn't seem like its the slave cylinder. any other ideas
