Winter to do list, not necessarily in this order:

1) Oil change
2) Go skiing
3) New motor mounts
4) Go Skiing
5) Racing seats
6) Go skiing
7) Clear front turns & rear amber turns
8) I just might, well you know by now.

Matt777, not sure if you have the same symptoms but my car was hanging up when I had to downshift while decelerating and had to blip the gas to disengage the clutch. Took it to the P-mechanic and he lowered the transmission and found corrosion in the input shaft. He lubed the shaft and now the gear box is as smooth as silk.
