Was driving home yesterday and went for third and missed it. Ever since it does'nt seem to want to go into gear. Is fine at low speeds etc... but as soon as get upto speed have to force it in.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

does it do it when its cold, when the car is warmed up or irespective of temperature?
 
Does it when warm and cold. Is literally only when at crawling speed it doesn't do it.
 
Exactly the same situation that im in. It was going up and down the gears and then after better oil and some additive it was only going down into third and second and now today its back to all the gears changes down. Have to force them. But its not too much of a worry as i`ve finally got another box DC2 blueprint clutch and exedy flywheel going in tomorrow.
 
Richie i would either ask if anyone in the club is near to have a look or failing that go see if you can get a ord from one of the Honda tech's at your local Honda dealer.
they might be able to point you in the right direction!

But sound like your sink mesh is playing up, and hence may need to rebuild the box! i may be completly wrong but i couldn't say without driving it! or atempting too..
 
Sounds clutch related, quite common for one of the springs to go on B series clutchs making it very hard to engage any gear

I would get it checked out sharpish !

Alot cheaper to have the clutch checked out than start stripping the box down, if the gears were shifting fine before then i really can't see it being a syncro, get the clutch checked.
