1st to 2nd gear hard to shift..

My 1st gear is a little reluctant first thing on a cold morning. After a couple stops it loosens up. That said, I'm talking Chicago cold, not North Carolina "cool".

My 1st gear is a little reluctant first thing on a cold morning. After a couple stops it loosens up. That said, I'm talking Chicago cold, not North Carolina "cool". I had a BMW before the Z and it had the most wonderful gearbox...it didn't matter if it was -10, it went into each gear like butter. Hated the damn clutch though with it's Clutch Delay Valve for guys that didn't know how to drive a stick. What it did was smooth shifts by slipping the clutch which resulted in premature wear which resulted in BMW making a fortune on new clutches. I had my valve removed.
