Default Clutch problems

Hey guys. My 1st/2nd/reverse gears have been getting stuck every now and then. And sometimes it will be the opposite and even with the clutch pushed all the way in it wont go into gear. 87k miles and Im doubtful the Tranny fluid has been flushed/replaced. Anyone with previous experience on this with their ep3? Its not preventing me from driving as, If i turn the car off then restart it the gear will go in/out just as normal, Hense why i was thinking it was the fluid.. Thanks for anything guys

Clutch. It happen in my dc5. Come home fine for the bar. Got up to go run some errands and I couldn't get it into any gear. I thought it was my cmc or my hydrolic system. I had it towed to the shop and teh mechanic said most it was my clutch sticking. Probably bad pressure plate or something having to do with the clutch. So he popped it back out. He told me if it happens again to start it in R a couple times and it should pop back out so I can drive. It hasn't happened since. But I went ahead and bought a new clutch and flywheel combo. Hope this helps.
