Causes:
Thickening of Transmission Fluid: In colder temperatures, the transmission fluid thickens, leading to difficulty in shifting gears.
Cold Clutch: In manual transmission, cold temperatures can cause the clutch fluid to become thick and less responsive.
Worn Linkages: Cold weather can also affect worn-out shift linkages, making it harder to engage gears.

Solution:

Use high-quality transmission fluid suitable for low temperatures.
Ensure proper warming up of the vehicle before engaging the gears, especially in colder weather.
