2nd gear sucks !!
 
Please excuse my English guys !!

I always feel like there is "something" at the gate of 2nd gear, never a smooth shift into 2nd, now its happening to 3rd but not as bad. Is the Z manual transmission designed like this?? anyone has this problem or is it just my car :mad:?? thanks

No one has this problem ?? even if you don't, say something so that I know my car is having problem. Thanks

I haven't experienced any issues shifting into 2nd.

Sounds like your Transmissions acting up or the clutch needs adjusting.
Take it to your Dealer for a check up.

Its not like a problem shifting into 2nd, it just doesn't feel smooth like other gears, its like something is there, know what I mean ??

It feels like that for me too sometimes. But it only happens when I shift too quickly,

Take it to the dealer. And if you abuse the trans/clutch, schitt will happen.

Yeah engaging 2nd is notchy, there is a "lump" there, but sometimes its smooth, kinda weird. Anyway, I sometimes grind 2nd on hard pulls, it doesn't like to be shifted too fast.
