Newbie saying hello and HELP PLEASE!!

Hi Not long bought a 2000 A160 with Semi Auto box. All has been great with the car no probs so far. Untill last night when driving along i went to change gear and it near as dam it refused to go in to any gear, I really had to force the gear stick. Once in gear it was fine drove ok. Thing is i was 20 miles from home so had to drive back. After about 10 miles of me forcing the gears it started to slide nicely into gear as previous but now the clutch is slipping terribly. Its only done 24000 miles.
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance
Paul

change the relays next to the fuses its the cheaper 1st thing to do.

There is a small black plastic linkage on top on the gearbox, these pop off and cause selection issues. Can be refitted but should ideally be replaced asap!!!!
