I had a new clutch fitted last week and for the past 2/3days my car has begun to struggle to get into 2nd or reverse gear then when it is in, it sometimes jumps out. Coould it be that the clutch just needs re-adjusting or do I need a new gearbox? It was ok before the clutch was fitted.

Thanks

sounds like you upset the gear leaver linkage when you did the clutch, perhaps adjust that
It does sound like a disturbed or mis-adjuste gear linkage-take it back to where it was done and get them to sort it!
What make and model is it?
