When I sit at a light with the car in neutral and shift to first to go, about 1/4-1/3 of the time, it won't go into gear. I have to double clutch. WHY DOES IT DO THIS??? It's annoying. I understand that there is a safety thing so you can't put it into first from second, but why not from neutral?

A clutch that isn't operating properly will give difficult shifting in all gears, not just first.
