I have had this problem ever since I got the car in January. Sometimes 1st gear can be an arse to get.
Would this be clutch related or gearbox?
It's never had a new clutch and it's on 108k (1.4 RTI 1992 ph2)
Cheers all |

it may still be something to do with gear linkage ,i had to lift the thing to get in to 5th when i bought the chamade
gone under the car and examined the way gear linkage works while my neighbour in the car was telling me what gear it went in as i messed with the linkage .than figured out putting a washer in the linkage would make it work tidy and it did 
also have you checked your box oil ? changing it works wonders |
