start double clutching. :thumbup:

go to the dealer...usually they'll cover it under warranty, even though it's almost always caused by driver error.

couple exceptions to driver error are the 5th gen accord 5th gear grinding problem, and the 98-00 civic 3rd gear grinding problem.

are you yanking it into 2nd gear?
try, after you push the clutch down pulling it out of 1st and waiting a little bit longer than you would normally change and see if it goes in nicer
