    it could be the roll pin on the gearbox

    Start with gear box roll pin for 80p. Then move onto the rods from citroen about £15 each then if that doesn't solve it get a selector ball £30 and after all that replace the gear selector link bar.

    And if all that hasn't worked then you need to start looking into your gearbox as that's where your problem will be.

    roll pin is only like 32pence or something like that from citroen so try that out 1st. Take a look at this guide by the way its pretty good and shows where all the parts are in the linkage system:
