I figured out something else now this isnt every time but I can press in the clutch and rev it up and it will grind it sounds wierd and you can feel the vibration. Their is no grinding when I am in gear and moving. Only when the clutch is in and it doesnt matter if it is in gear or not. But again it not all the time.
That sure sounds like every throw out bearing faliure I ever had - and I've had a lot. Throw out bearings will make noise or grinding mainly when the clutch is in. If they're really bad, they can make noise when the clutch is out, since they are wearing out (getting eaten up).
Under these conditions, they can cause shifting problems like you describe, since the bearing may have worn down enough that it's now not releasing the clutch fully. A slave problem could cause that, too, but it shouldn't cause any grinding when the clutch is in while stopped.
Did the noise/grinding start some time before the grinding when shifting occurred - I'm guessing, yes?
Also, it will be fickle - sometimes making noise, and sometimes not. Also, it can start out quiet, then start making noise while sitting at a light, because it's getting hot, like you said.
It's clear that you have to pull the transmission, anyway. You'll know if it's the throw-out bearing or slave or pilot bushing before dismantling the transmission. If it is one of those things, I wouldn't bother rebuilding the transmission unless it was getting a bit dodgy before this happened.
