Having driven this car for quite some time, it doesn't seem as if the clutch is bad. Once I'm actually in gear, the car feels normal. However, the problem is actually getting into gear. I just wanted to know if anyone knows why the gear is "grabbing." I have already changed the transmission fluid, and flushed/replaced the hydraulic clutch fluid. If anyone can help me figure out this problem please let me know. The only thing I can think of is that something is causing the clutch to not disengage properly, and that the clutch may be going bad. I have no experience in this area, and if anyone could give me some suggestions, I'd really appreciate it.

You know its common for hondas to have hard shifting problems. I got an 01 civic ex and sometimes it feels hard to put into gear, or are times when I can go to first gear.
Most of all, I hate going into reverse. Gear doesnt fully go to reverse unless I do it hard.
BTW what clutch fluid and where do I buy it.
I just did a transmission oil change and my gears feels way better. It goes into place easy. However, it did not stop the grinding. 2nd gear grinds.
