Hydraulic clutch systems on cars are a very simple design. If you are having trouble getting into a gear, either the syncro for that particular gear is worn, or you do not have enough pressure in the hydraulic system for the csc to be able to push in on the pressure plate enough to fully disengage from the disk. Like Chuck33079 mentioned, the CSC is probably on its last leg.
