SHIFTING ISSUE
it might be in the clutch master and slave cylinders. is the fluid level right in the master? also, the fluid might be contaminated. from a personal experience, i had a seal leak in the slave cylinder, the fluid level was correct and uncontaminated, the fluid was just bypassing the seal. the cost of the new master/slave cylinder was about 0 four years ago and took about 20 minutes to do

Tip:

Walking the Crossing<br> When walking your water crossings its best to walk in the intended wheel tracks to find if there are any hidden rocks or potholes, as well as for checking the depth. Potholes at common crossings are often caused by previous 4x4 spinning their wheels after hitting a submerged rock. So if you find a pothole, check for submerged rocks. It's a good idea to place markers at these points so you can avoid them. Its been known for a vehicle attempting a relatively easy crossing to suck in water when a single pothole has caused the hood to momentarily dip below the water level, causing water to enter the air intake, resulting in hydro-lock and a damaged engine.
