So I just had the driveshaft replaced on my ''95 3.4L Camaro. 

When I got it back from the shop I had a hard time getting it into gear, i really had to slam it. Then later after work, I couldn''t get it into gear at all for quite some time. I have since found out that when I first start up the car it won''t go into any gear, but if I let it just sit and idle for about 5-10 mins I can get it to go, not easily, but its better than nothing.

I originally just figured I somehow ruined the clutch, but now I am thinking it maybe something else, since it seems to shift Ok sometimes after its been warmed up. Any Ideas? I had been driving with a pretty bad driveshaft for a few days, so I am wondering if that may have affected something?

I may just end up taking it back to the shop, but I figured I would ask around here first.

the drive shaft doesnt have anything to do with shifting its just what gets the vehicle to move, sounds like it could be the clutch or flywheel ever its hard to say
