Difficulty going into 1st and 3rd Gear
hi all, i have a MK2 mondeo Zetec, its just started to get hard to get it into 1st gear, it doesnt engage properly most of the time so it grinds.
Once its in its fine, also sometimes as i put it into 3rd the same happens it just grinds.
Is this the selector????
