A 2 - 1 downshift while moving will always be difficult to engage. It's something I've experienced with every car I've owned. Fortunately, there isn't a need to be rolling and shift into first for driving purposes...2nd gear has plenty of pull even from 5 or 10 mph. The transmission oil change may help, but super cold temperatures will make shifts sticky until things warm up regardless of the fluid you are using.
