With the engine running, you can put it in first gear with the vehicle stopped?

Is the trans fluid clean and full? If it is and the clutch is working properly, then it has to be an internal issue with the transmission. If you double clutch it, can you shift the trans?

Trans fluid fine, no double clutching does not make it better. Also it's just started randomly disengaging and engaging slightly when engine is warm!

It sounds like it may be an issue internally with the transmission.
