As the title suggest i am having issues with my 1998 Mk3 Golf Tdi (130k).
Gearbox was running fine with no unusual noises but i am now unable to select 3rd,4th or 5th gear.Gearbox oil level/colour is normal as is the clutch operation (1st,2nd & reverse engage smoothly).
The selector shaft doesn't appear to be moving up far enough so i have disconnected the shift cables in the hope thet the mechanism might need adjusting.Unfortunately that is not the case.
I have now removed the selector shaft but don't really know what i'm looking for.
Anybody have an idea as to the cause/fix?

Regards
