Default Lost some Gears

Evening All

I have had a bit of unusal experience on my way home tonight... i can select 1st, 2nd & 3rd gear as normal but when it come to the rest, im struggling

4 & 6th initially sounds like its bitten then grates as i apply the power
5th will go in but unless i hold the gear **** with pretty much all my strength, it pops out.

Is it a clutch flywheel issue or does it sound more serious ? The clutch has slipped a few times recently

Any light anyone can shed on the problem would be greatly appreciated

Thank You

Hi , def sounds like a clutch issue. The clutch plate is prob worn, especially if it has been slipping. The pressure plate isnt clearing sufficiently to allow the gears to be selected. Go with a complete clutch kit.
