Might be your filter or you could just put in Lucas transmission treatment or any other authorized transmission fluid you might Google major sellers online.

you should have gave us more infor on which year is the car

what was the problem before you took it to the mechanic ?

it looks like the problem might be in the gear selection rod or cable

The problem you have is the material that was used to refurbish your clutch disk is too thick for the design of the pressure plate, this happens a lot when refurbishing disks. Presently when you step on your clutch pedal the disk is still in slight contact with the fly wheel, so gear switching becomes stiff.

2ways of fixing your problem, replace disk with the right one. Or try this old trick. Place spacers of even sizes inbetween the disk and the flywheel.
before bolting it up (usually oil pressure rings are used) this method though crooked works like a charm. grin

Good luck.

Its ur gear selector. Take it to any competent roadside mechie and ask him to fix ur gear selector

Clue: it is fixed from under the car and not from the gear lever inside the car
