    My mothers Passat recently (1.9 Tdi) got a new Clutch master & Slave cylinder. Now however i'm having trouble putting the car into third gear, it does not grind it just doesn't sit into gear correctly and if I depress the clutch it will grind then. However if you try twice or three times it eventually goes into gear correctly. Again I stress it does not grind going into gear just if i depress the clutch when its not sitting in gear correctly. I have had this problem for three weeks now and I feel as though all other gears are also becoming notchy and sticky however that could be me being paranoid, I'm very unsure. There are no vibrations from the Flywheel and it could have been done before I purchased the car but I can't confirm this for sure. Any help and advice appreciated, Thanks!

    Hi Tdireddi,
    Any update, having a very similar problem with my own car, have to force it into reverse all other gears fine.
