1st gear issues

ocassionally after long periods of drivin over 45 mins my first gear becomes very hard to shift into from neutral if im decelerating and shift from second to first at a complete stop its fine. but goin from neutral to first at a complete stop it seems almost impossible at time to get into gear… any suggestion g2ic… thank you

Not sure how often it is happening to you, but I’ve had my car since it was brand new and it happens to me occasionally too. At first I’d sit there and wrestle with it until I forced It into 1st.

Eventually, I figured out you just leave it in neutral, Let the clutch pedal come up, then press it again. Now it will shift into 1st just fine.

Apparently, the gears sometimes end up tooth-to-tooth and that’s why it won’t go into 1st, by letting off the clutch, the one of the gears spins, and then when you press the clutch again, it will now (usually) be in a different position and go in.
