2000 Sunfire GT - Stiff Gear Shift
Hi folks. 2000 Sunfire GT; 2.4L; 190,000km; Automatic Transmission
Fairly simple to explain (I think).... When moving the stick/gear shift from Park to Drive, 3, 2, 1, it is stiff and gets progressively worse to the point where I can't even get it into the 1st gear! Before I take this puppy to the garage, I am seeking any input/insight on possible causes for this problem. Note: this is probably not a factor, however, the engine was replaced last October. Thank you for you time and replies.

Re: 2000 Sunfire GT - Stiff Gear Shift
This is likely a cable that is in need of lubrication and probably a little bit rusty. You are probably going to need to pull up the center console to get to the shifter and cable and apply a little white grease. Check that the cable isn't twisted or something that would cause binding and you should be fine.
