My T350 is sometimes very difficult to get in to gear - usually first.

Once it is on the read and warmed up I don't seem to have any problems, its just the first selection when cold.

Any ideas?

Thank you

my tam went to garage suffering exactly the same issues

was told its usually symptomatic of clutch fingers failing = new clutch.

however they adjusted the clutch cable and problem solved

It's not a clutch cable as it's a hydraulic system, but you can adjust the bite and release point with the threaded push rod connecting the pedal to the master cylinder.
