Welcome to the skip-shift club. I don't have second lol. I'll trade you.



Well, actually if I'm very careful and I'm downshifting and rev match I can get it into second most of the time after a fluid change.



Was it giving you trouble before or was this out of the blue?

Rev match, double clutch, but only if you make up stupid sayings about not having your car as you do it. All kidding aside that really sucks.

I can't help but wonder if you're having linkage issues, how do the bushings look on the trans? Is there significant play?
