Default 91 Jetta Clutch Cable

Ok, Here's the update. New clutch plate, pressure plate, flywheel, release
bearing plate and circlip. Just replaced release rod ans another release
bearing. Still grinds and will not go into gear. Auto adjust clutch cable
SEEMS to work. I need help.

Only 2 things I can think of: clutch cable is stretched out but you
can not tell visually.

Internal problem with trans.

Step 1 replace clutch cable and go from there

It might also be a cracked release arm/lever that is in the transmission.
It is the lever the cable is attached to, pivots, and pushes the release
bearing. I have seen these crack and cause problems like what you describe.
pop that cover off and have someone step on the clutch pedal while you
examine the arm/lever's action.

I am currently handling an 86 trans that likes to eat release bearings and
pushrods. :-(
I might change out the little housing with the release arm/lever in it.
It was fine for about 2 years, but now after a new clutch it is at it again.
What fun!
lol
