stuck gears

hi folks
getting out of reverse gear is becoming near impossible.
getting in and out of 1st and 2nd gears have been extremely difficult as well.
This is an 02 mcs with approx 70,000kms.
Has anyone experienced something similar to this?

See if changing the transmission fluid will sort it out. Not promising anything but its worth a shot, it will make shifting smoother never-the-less. Give Redline MTL or MT-90 a try, I've noticed gears go in and come out a lot easier after changing mine.
