Hi everyone. I have a Fiat Bravo 2008 1.9 D Multijet, for the past few months my gear stick has been extremely stiff and trying to move it left and right takes a tremendous amount of force. Trying to put it into 5th or reverse sometimes requires two hands just to get it to the correct position to slide it to the required gear. The odd thing is, it's fine when first using the car, I can easily put it in 5th and reverse with no problem but after about 15+ mins of driving, it becomes increasingly harder to do so.
I'm not really that car adept and have little understanding of the issue, I could take it to a mechanic, but I'm currently a university student and probably don't have the funds to pay for the labour. So any help on the problem and solution would be much appreciated.
