Bought new M1 with manual. Engaging gears is not easy almost always. I have to apply quite some unusual force to finish engagement. Especially first 2 gears and reverse. I had manuals in the past, and when synchro discs are dead you need to press clutch, shift to neutral, rev it up and then engage whatever gear you need. This approach helps here but in a less way it did on previous dead manuals. I wonder if anyone had this problem or maybe everyone faces it while gearbox is new and not "broken in"?
It seems to be not an issue in higher gears. I just found it unusual (giving my personal experience with manuals) that with new gearbox I have to push stick harder to finish shift (last 5% of movement), I would imagine I feel gears contacting each other with my fingers through the stick...
