Another issue with my truck cropped up over the holidays...yay. It is an M5OD-R1. When I bought it, I knew it needed a throwout bearing, but put the money towards other more immediate needs (like brakes) and drove it anyway. It always made a clunking sound upon the clutch pedal being pushed. Now, I can't hear the clunk anymore, but it is extremely dificult to put into any gear while running. With the engine off, it goes in just fine. It just feels like theres a huge resistance, and once I force it hard enough it breaks through it and goes in the rest of the way fine. It doesn't grind, nothing. Could this be the end result of the throwout bearing finally caving, and I should just replace the clutch and everything?
