   Was just parking my saxo and i was trying to put in reverse and it was grinding as if it was being put in reverse while moving it done it twice and then i lifted the clutch up and done it again it was fine? start of bad clutch problems?
   
   secondly when im coming to a stand still like red lights or something as i put it into first it feels like it wants to stall?
   
   Is this the clutch that is being a bitch?

   when i think about it, it may be the clutch, is the pedal quite high or low in the footwell?

   Would not worry about it being a bitch to get in reverse all saxo's are known for it... As for the stalling when you come to lights i hope you dont shove it in 1st or you will kill your box.

    Go into a forward gear before going into reverse, whats it like then? as reverse gears don't have a synchro.
    Is it tight into first gear? And where abouts does the pedal sit and clutch bite? Any noises etc?
