Clutch / gearbox issues?

[ShivP]

Hello all

We have a 2005 fiesta 1.25, manual.
Started it up yesterday, and it wouldn't go into gear. Crunches when trying to go into reverse, and trying to engage first / second etc does not work. It appears to slightly 'catch' the gear in first, and slowly move forward, but I can't engage the gear fully
Brakes work fine it seems, so no concern with a fluid leak...(?)
Tried to pump clutch, no difference.

I never noticed the clutch slipping, however :/

Any thoughts?
Thanks

Sounds like the clutch isn't clearing fully. I would try with bleeding the clutch to see if that improves it. Also check the rod coming out of the clutch master cylinder into the back of the pedal as these are plastic and prone to breaking. Failing that, it's likely going to need a clutch replacement.

Thanks.
Just checked the pedal and all looks OK on that front
