on the way today car was going grand, came out of toll booth and going up thru gears not even hard bout 4-5k in each gear, went from 3rd to 4th and nothing couldnt get a gear jus horrid grinding noise, made my way ova to hard shoulder slowed the car down and tried 5th and went in fine, then coming up to round aboutslowing down, went into fourth fine but into 3rd was a struggle and into second as i released clutch u cud hear the grindin again its absolutely fine if u keep revs low before changing down but if thers a load on the gearbox it grinds!?? cud it be pressure plate or something!?? :ponder:
 
The best case scenario is that the gear linkage is loose and just needs to be tightened, worse case is that the syncro is fooked. I don't think it is the clutch/pressure plate as it seems to be fine in other gears. I hope its not too bad.
