Stiff Gearchanges

[VadMan]

Hello People -

Quick technical question for anyone that knows. I'm having problems changing gears in my mum's car especially when its cold. The mechanism seems to be very stiff in all gears until everything is up to working temperature.

I know that worn clutches are often highlighted by trouble going into first or reverse because of the synchromesh. As this is happening in all gears im guessing its something else.

Any ideas?


Thanks

I won't know the answer regardless but it might be useful to mention what car it is

Hi
Possibly needs an oil change in gearbox or could be worn gear linkage, depending on what make and model of car. Is there any grinding when changing gear.
