Question Whats the Matter with my Clutch??

Today I wake up start my car for school warm it up 10-15 mins like always. (granted this morning it was -10 outside). But my clutch is normal all the way to school. Get out of school its fine alittle hard to get it into gear but not prob. But then this afternoon i had same arrends to run and I start my car warm it and try and put it into gear. Nothing it wont go into any gear. I have to grind it into revser and then have to grind it into every gear! Whats the deal?? Syncros?? or is it just that it is unbelively cold??

make sure your clutch fluid resivoir is filled up.
adjust your clutch pedal freeplay according to the FSM.
Check your master and slave cylinders.

Yea could be clutch fluid, check that. Also try driving it again tomorrow and see how it works out. How long was the car sitting before you ran errands (like after school)? Good luck!

If the clutch hydraulics are all ok, it could be a failed pilot bearing.
