HI guy's

All the gears were extremley difficult to engage, no crunching or noises, just the gear shift "very" notchy. and at some times literally had to ram the gear stick home.

No jumping out of gears no lurching.

Also Idle seemed a little bit twitchy

When I got home, I parked up and tried the gear lever with engine off, clutch in, all seemed ok.

now,
(my continuing problem) with the heatshield over the CAT having disappeared, though all other heat sheilds are still in place. And I got some heatsheild materail Which I slapped inbetween the cat and the bodywork.

Could this be causing a problem with grease drying out in the linkage in the gaebox tunnel

I suspect it might also simply be the clutch pedal needing checking.

Any ideas on how I can check or prove what's happening.

Cheers
