Difficult Getting Into 3rd

[Kennedy]

Lately when ive been driving round i've noticed its somethimes difficult to get it into 3rd gear.

Would this be the gear selector bushes?

If it is how much are these to replace? can you get uprated ones?

those look like the bushes that connect onto the gearselector, if the glanza centre consoles are like the gt's you need to remove the console for the handbrake then there is 2 bolts holding the section under the dash/stereo/gearstick slide it out over the gearstick and see if it is those bushes.

if not your next step is to check the bushes on the gearbox side give them a wiggle to see if there is any play.

Hope i've helped
