Is it a loose gear change or just difficult to get into first.

If it is the latter it might be the clutch causing the problem.

no the gear stick is not sloppy feels nice and tight was thinking it my be the clutch as the pedal is feeling a little low but was hoping for a fix :(

Take a look at this handy How To by cjj Weekly Checks

You can see a photo of the clutch fluid reservoir, which you'll find under the bonnet, on the bulk head above and to the left of the windscreen washer reservoir.
