What causes a gearbox to stick?
If your car has sticky gears, it could also be due to a clogged filter. On most vehicles your transmission filter is located just before your transmission fluid pump. If you allow this to go on too long, then your pump could wear out. A clogged filter can also allow air to be incorporated into the fluid.
Does holding the gear stick while driving?
Resting your hand on the gear stick while it’s in gear may cause you to unwittingly apply pressure to the selector fork and other internal parts. In the long run, this habit can speed up wear and tear of gearbox components, leading to noisy or crunching gears or possible failure to select a gear.
Why is it hard to get into 2nd gear?

What does it mean if your car won’t go into gear?
The first culprit to suspect when your vehicle refuses to go into gear is low transmission fluid.
