Problem with transmission - Toyota Yaris Forums

You are feeling the synchronizers in action. The synchronizers match the gear speeds before letting the gears mesh.

There are a number of possible things that could cause hard shifting:

Not mention in the web site is changing the fluid. The wrong type fluid will cause hard shifting, or if the fluid is too old.

The clutch should be clearly dis-engaging the engine. You can feel it if it is not. With the car in gear you should be able to let the clutch out part ways before you feel the car start to move, or the engine slow down.

Shift linkages can be not adjusted right, too tight, or too loose.

Or the transmission maybe due for a rebuild.
