If by sticky you mean its difficult/notchy to get into gear then could be the clutch needs bleeding (so its not disengaging fully). Quick easy job so may as well get it done anyway.

My gearchange has become stiff and no longer self-centres apparently because of lack of lubrication/wear in the unit on the gearbox into which the cables from the lever are connected (does the TS have cables?). It can be removed, dismantled and lubed or just replaced - cost about £80. Can be tricky to refit - must make sure the linkage position has been marked & doesn't get moved.
