Default problem getting into gear

Hey guys, need some help, yesterday I was driving the trans am and suddenly it was hard to put it in gear ( its a m6 transmission), it does not grind or anything, but when im stop and trying to get into a gear its hard, once its in and driving its more easy to change gears. I have an ls7 clutch about 1 year old. WHat can it be?

It could be several things but the first thing I would so is check the fluid in the reservoir and see if it is dark or discolored. You can easily flush and refill the system and this may take care of your difficult shifting. Try it and keep us posted!
