as some people know i got a 2.7TDI maverick with manual transmission.

today its very hard to select gears with engine running and some time not possible with out alot of force.

with the engine off the gears are selectable with easy and no problems.

has any one else has this problem and any help to the solution would be great

it could be the clutch dragging on the input splines, try looking in the downloads, arhh, you are red, dont think you can until you join.

Correct about the downloads n joining

Definitely sounds like the clutch isn't engaging as apposed to being shagged...

Clutch!

Check master and slave cylinders and then the pipes including the damper pipe as this is also a weak point.

There's a bleed nipple for the clutch on the chassis by the offside rear wheel if you want to bleed it fully.
