Gear selection issues on mk1 Leon FR

[chris285]

As above I have a mk1 Leon PD150, and coming come yesterday I found myself unable to select 5th gear on the downshift but up shifting into this gear it was fine. With engine off just sat in car with my foot on the clutch I can select gears including the problem with with no issues at all, I found out today that 5th is selectable on the downshift but it may take a few attempts and I have to keep the gear stick to the right when I do this as well as other wise it feels like i am hitting the outside of the gate and missing the gear

I don't have any problems with any other gears they all select fine, clutch does slip however due to a remap and the clutch not being what i thought when buying which is a long story but no creeping just slips sometimes. I've noticed a couple of other gears are a tad notchy when trying to select and mostly 1st and 2nd but they select with no problems at all.

I'm going to try resetting the gear selector as a firs step, then possibly look at a gearbox oil change and see if that tells me any more but I have a feeling it's something more to it that this. Part of my issue is if it was the clutch at fault i'd take it to darkside developments for a replacement, however i'm not sure that is the fault and anymore i don't think they could deal with so I am hoping someone else may have had or know of an issue with this and may be able to advise me what is at fault.
