I feel stupid when everyone is going on green while I'm still trying to get it in first to ride off. I been driving a stick for 3yrs already so I don't think its my driving.
I have your same problem in 1st and reverse. It's actually sometimes easier for me to stick it in 1st from a roll (revmatching) versus from a dead stop. Same problem with reverse, but my second gear goes in just fine. I have been told everything from synchros to hydraulics. I'll let you know when I fix the problem.
