The Master Cylinder is Damaged, this will make it more difficult to shift and may eventually cause the entire clutch to seize up. Transmission Fluids Are Low, if it becomes burnt or low, you’ll end up with gears that are trying to work without sufficient lubrication. The Hub Sleeve is Damaged, it may wear down over time or become damaged and this will cause it to slip out of place. The Synchronizer Teeth Are Worn Down, as soon as they are damaged, it becomes very difficult for the teeth to engage. The Gears Are Damaged, the normal wear and tear can cause sticking of the gearshift as the gears fail to engage. You may need to replace the gears in the transmission. If your gearshift is sticking, it could be any number of problems. It’s nearly impossible to figure out which of these problems is the cause of the issue, so it’s best to seek the help of a qualified mechanic.

The shifter acts weird, as in when I down shift, it doesn't go back to the middle, it just stays down. I think it's being pressed against the stand so it stays down, Because the stand had a mark where it meets the clutch and also if I move it down the clutch pops back in place. I can't for example shift from 4th to 2nd unless I either let go of the clutch, then it'll come back up, or put my foot under and kinda give it a push up.
