leaky master is the first thing I'd check followed by another inspection of the slave while bleeding the entire system.

i just picked my car up from the shop 20 minutes ago, they just finished replacing the leaky slave cylinder, so your thinking fluid flush would help?

i dont know if this helps but i can shift fine in neutral and stay in gear, but whenever i want to go into 2nd, from either 1st or 3rd or whichever gear it grinds and its a loud grind everytime from any rmp level, slowly engaging into 2nd doesnt help either still grinds, and quickly shifting into it as well

If you JUST picked it up, they probably didnt bleed it right, take it back tell them the problem and tell them to bleed it again

Did you check mileage of before and after it entered the shop? Some idiot could have been out for a few minutes joy riding!

Air in the system. Plain and simple. Slave cannot be bled on the car.
