I got a 1994 BMW 530i 5 speed, When I got it it needed a throwout bearing, so I drove it for awhile just shifting at the right rpm, then one day it decided to get stuck in 3rd gear. Did the tranny go out? Or should the clutch be replaced? Thanks for your help

Getting stuck in 3rd gear could mean a snchronizer/s
