Hi welcome to the site,do you mean that its very hard to change into 3rd and fourth? or hard to change from 3rd to fourth,just abit unsure of the problem you are having as obviously it would be impossible for the car to be perminently stuck in 3rd and 4th at the same time.
bit more info and you may get some help buddy.  :smiley:

Hello,

Have the same problem with my 1.3 Golf MK2 - stuck in 3rd and 4th gear, can't move the stick to the left :(

Did you ever find a solution?

Thanks in advance!

sounds like a linkage problem to me
should be an easy cheap fix.
