Rover 416sli Gears Grinding?

I recently had a new clutch and second hand gearbox on my Rover 416, the past few weeks I have had problems with intermittent grinding in 1st and 2nd gear.
I had the clutch servo, master and slave as they are 1 unit, replaced on the advice of a mechanic, but I am still experiencing the same problem, more so in second gear than before, the gearbox is under warranty, just, should i get it checked out?

The grinding is as you put it in gear, like sometimes when the clutch isnt pressed in enough, sometimes it's real short, more of a clunk, other times it's a real grind, especially if I'm using the gears as I'm slowing down. And I was suprised to see that there's a servo for the clutch to, more so to find that its a sealed unit and after i replaced it, still the same problem!!

It depends on what you mean by grinding and when it happens but yest get it checked by the person who did the work right away.

BTW, I didn't know that that clutch had a servo.
