Ford Fiesta had to force gear selection, hardly no reverse

Sounds Iike the clutch, may be hydraulic failure, check for leaks around gearbox, will be brake fluid.

hello their , i have got a leak right under the gear as you said, i had forgot to say the clutch pedal has no resistance at all, what do you reckon is leaking then, is the clinder slave, is it an easy fix. i have worked on cars before so i am a bit handy. any suggestions would be fantastic, cheers paul

Sounds like slave cylinder mate, common problem, clutches on Fiesta easy job!

thanks ill have a look today to see igf it is the slave cylinder
