Hello group,
Somewhat new T100 user here.
It's 97 T100 SR5 4x4 Ext Cab 5spd
I'm having some issues with shifting gears.

Anybody driving similar car in Western Mass, Springfield area, please?
I would certainly use recommendation for a good mechanic working with T100s
I purchased this car from local Toyota dealer.
I'm NOT happy with their repair shop.

Any respond appreciated

Thank you


Check the FAQ for the broken clutch pedal bracket. If yours is broken it could keep the pedal from fully disengaging the clutch. Also, make sure you are running a GL-4 lube in your transmission, NOT a GL-5. I've been running Redline MT-90 (MT-90 link) and it shifts great. The additives in the GL-5 oils do not let the synchronizers in the transmission do their job, the GL-4 additives are specifically for this.
