Clutch issue ?

RE: Clutch issue ?
Just to try and narrow things down a bit, here are a couple of questions...
- Did you ever notice the car creeping before you changed the oil ?
- Did it start the first time you fired the engine up after changing the oil ?
- Did you fill the gearbox thru the side plug or thru the shifter hole ?
- How much oil did you fill into the gearbox ?
- Do you drift/race this car ?
- Do you make hard/fast changes up and down thru the gears ?
- Do skids or burnouts ?
- Do clutch kicks or shift locks ?
- When you drained the oil did you notice any metal in the oil ?
- Is it hard to select gears without forcing the shifter ?
- Does it make any unusual sounds when you drive it now ?
- Are some gears harder to select than they used to be ?
- Does the gear lever feel the same as before when you shift ?

You really only have two choices now. Either take a chance and drive
the car around for a while normally (no racing) and see if the problem
gets better or worse (yes, I'm a cowboy Smile). Or pull the gearbox out and
have it checked for signs of damage. If the only thing that is unusual is
the creeping in neutral and there is no metal in the oil or strange noises,
then there can't be anything major wrong.
