    Hi
    i bought a passat tdi 130 (2003) 60,000 miles, earlier this week and believe there is an issue with gearbox or clutch???
    When stationary it is difficult engaging 1st gear. it doesn't matter whether i have just started the journey or 3 hours in, it is still as difficult. there is quite a lot of resistance.
    Any help would be great before taking car down to local garage.
    Thank you
