I think it's your clutch but before you buy a new one, check your clutch fluid and bleed the clutch line

from what I see on 'VELOCITY" the diesels should use a conditioner in the fuel to prevent sludge , if you're having trouble getting it into gear you should have it taken care of before you ruin the tranny
