Think i have the same prob, it wont go into gear some times n its solid as fook ? There a bit in the engine that i twist and it loosens it for a while but needs to be done every so often, take it to vauxhall they should be able to pin point the prob

I also have this, i usually just wait till the car completly stops before putting it in first...
On a hill i usually have to roll forward a bit to put it in reverse but i thought that was normal?

you have to force it in when sometimes, other times it is smooth, reverse makes a lil bit of a grinding noise when puttin in gear, the clutch seems fine though
