Unable to select gears

Hi

I've not had any problems selecting gears, parked the car up with the engine running then went to drive away and could only get 3rd. Managed to get the car home (only in 3rd) but not able to select any gears now with the engine running. I have heard a rumbling / grinding noise when first pulling away or slowing in 2nd gear of late was this a warning the clutch was on the way out and would the clutch go so quickly? Can it be something else?

Any advice greatly received

Sean
 
I had my shifter rod break up due to metal fatigue right at the base of the shifter mechanism. First I lost 1st gear, then 3rd nd 5th and then the whole thing. it was welded up by my porsche mechanic in Nottingham but I felt better buying a good but used shifter rod, as somewhat the welded rod gave me an imprecise shift.


Kind regards,

Bert
