Today I tried to down-shift from 2nd to first gear and it just wouldn't go. My RPM on 2nd was at about 3k. Then I pushed really hard and it went into first. But I had to push really hard. I don't think that is normal.

I mean for a 40k car, shouldn't it have a smooth shift? Has anyone else have this experience? It is really frustrating me.

I am going to take it to the dealer very soon. I just hit 1k, so I need my first oil change anyway.
