As already stated the balk ring which slows down the third gear hub is worn out, (it gets the most use) if it was a clutch fault you would experience this problem in all gears. however out of respect to the other contributors a new clutch should be fitted when the gearbox is being repaired or replaced, it is quite possible that a nearly worn out clutch has quickened the demise of this item.

It sounds as though the third gear synchromesh is worn. If it were a clutch problem then you would experience problems with all the gears.

Sounds like a bad synchronizer, I just had this problem. I just had it fixed. Mine was in 5th gear though. Can be cause by having a heavy foot or quick acceleration.
