my 1999.5 volkswagen jetta GL 2.0 five speed manuel is acting weird. i just got this car about a month ago and about three to five days ago I have started to notice a shifting problem. I know that this is not the clutch because it only has 3000 miles on it. Anyways, when i have to shift down into first gear it will sometimes grind but most the time it is hard to get into first gear so what i have been doing is before i shift into first i hold the clutch in and pop it into second and without letting the clutch out i will shift into first and then it shifts smoothly... what the hell is wrong with it?
