MT won't go into gear in RWD

cut my losses and took it in. He sent me this picture of a broken spring on the clutch.

 

I always like finding an obvious problem like that when troubleshooting. Hopefully that's the cause of your issues.

 

drives like butter now. Had no idea what a new clutch felt like.

 

What clutch did you replace it with?

 

Wow, 200k mi. and that disc does not look all that bad, except the spring. I guess that is why so many over the years here have stuck with the OEM.
