Stuck in 5th...

Bugger to get it out of 5th and now 4th is getting sticky - even worse if I come to a halt in one of those gears. There's also a knock from underneath the pedals on acceleration/decellleration - sounds as if a pedal has been allowed to spring back up by itself. This started roughly the same time so possibly connected.

I'm hoping linkages as opposed to gearbox...any suggestions would be appreciated..
