My clutch or something is acting up on me. I can barely get my car into any gear while it's running and when I have the clutch depressed and it's in first gear, the car will idle forward as if the clutch isn't disengaging. I just got a new factory clutch installed, so what could my problem be?

Clutch could be in backwards, spring clips on fork or throwout bearing could be bent, missing, or installed backwards. Look underneath at the slave cylinder and make sure it pushes the fork the full travel. It could also just need bled, do this first, it's free. Sounds like the shop is responsible.

did they adjust your clutch pedal after the install? it's not fully disengaging, i'd check the clutch pedal, won't cost you anything
