Renault Clio struggles to go into 1st, 2nd and reverse

Car: Renault Clio

Sometimes struggles to go into 1st, 2nd and reverse. Recently had the clutch done but that’s made no difference. New gearbox oil in, same problem.

More than likely to be gear shifter cables / linkage problems or adjustment

Mine does the same when stationary. I just have to let the car roll ever so slightly, whichever direction it goes, and it will slip into gear ok.
