Trouble getting it in !!!

[srdtvr]

Sometimes when I stop in traffic etc. I have difficulty getting first gear,if I quickly engage 5th then back to 1st its ok (ish) on the move its ok. Same thing happens in reverse, can crunch a bit. Is this normal?

cheers Dave, I think the hydrobolics are OK but I need to check gearbox oil.

Thanks for that I think I'll check the hydraulics again as the other options will need a bit more time (and effort) anyway it ain't too bad (yet).
Cheers,
Steve
