it seems to struggle sometimes when putting it into reverse and today when putting it into 1st gear feels kinda lumpy aswell if you know what i mean not smooth like it should be.

could this mean a new gear linkage needed?

just above your gearbox there will be a cable and a long lever

there should be a small plastic block atached to both screw that up or down cant remember and the pedal will rise that should sort it
