Default Intermittent Problems Shifting

I am having intermittent problems shifting into reverse I almost have to force it into gear.

It occurs infrequently and when the car is warmed up well.

The clutch oil is clean.

Anyone have similiar problems?

Happy Holidays!

I have since day #1, 10/21/04.
Same as my Miata.
I just developed the habit to double clutch and go into first gear first with both cars and the problem is mentally gone.
