LS Tranny hard to put in gear (new clutch)
i just put new clutch on my car, well i didnt do it, i took it to the shop, but when i got it back, its hard to get on first and second gear in full stop, i have to force it to go in, when the car is moving its easy to put in 2nd gear, i took it back told him the problem he said it could be the hydraulic system, he also put a new slave and bled, still the same hard to put in gear. When the car is turned off, the gears go in really good, what could it be the problem?

Problem solved, I don't have to press the clutch all the way to the floor to change gears, just press halfway...
