have you checked ur clutch fluid
or brake master cylinder leaking?

You push on the clutch pedal, but the gearshift will not move?
If so, do not force the shifter to move, and do not attempt to drive the car. Have the car towed.
Problems:
1. The shift linkage is binding on something.
2. There are internal problems in the transmission.
3. The clutch may not be disengaging.

Did you have any gearbox work done recently? Toda Au mentioned to me before that if you get the shift forks in the wrong position when putting the gearbox casing back together, you lose all gears except reverse.

u will still get 5th gear as well as reverse,cos u need the 5th/reverse shift fork in position to get reverse.
it would be pretty n00b to mix up shift forks anyway,they obviously match up to the correct synchro hub when u place them in.
sounds like just a case of bleed/check clutch fluid

yeah follow the advice above. first thing i'd check is your fluid level, anything other than that is beyong the average DIYer.... at least you can drive in reverse to get it checked out :p
Hey guys thx for the feedback,but nah i havent had any work recently done,but a mechanic said my clutch was on the way out ages ago,but i still continued driving, so not to sure ,maybe just need a clutch change or ?

Reverse is a straight cut gear, Like a dog box. It should be able to get in.
I think you clutch is goneski.
