Grinding gearstick mondeo

[3rd time lucky]

Hi all, this is only my second time on here, just wanted to ask,the gearstick on my mondeo has started to grind when going into 2nd and 4th gear, it does not do it everytime but last night was much more noticeable and you could hear the kind of grinding noise as well as feel it. My mechanic is on holiday until Tuesday, so I thought I would just ask on here and see if anyone had heard of this or might know what the problem maybe. I'm hoping it's not a big job, but knowing my luck with cars it probably is!! It's a 58 plate incase that makes any difference? Thanks in advance.

Hello

It's difficult to diagnose with out seeing it but could be the clutch wearing or in need of adjustment or
It could be worn parts in the gearbox.
Either way it can be fixed and not for huge sums of money.
Eta: it could actually be selector shafts.. That would be cheap!

It's not likely to be the clutch if it's only doing it in particular gears.
probably a gearbox selector or synchromesh fault.
