Thanks Help will be appreciated

Id say its either broken or its the selector.

too many neutral bangers?

[julian_s13]

I heard it was something to do with a filter or something

You probably heard wrong.

[julian_s13]

oh your good help.

[Jace]

I try my best.

As Spyda said, it's either the linkages/selector or the box is actually stuffed.

There is strainer filter in the gear box under the sump, may sound daft have you checked the ATF fluid levels and when did you last change it?

Sounds like its ready for a 5 speed swap...
