6MT first gear issue
when shifting into first I need to clutch in and wait like 5 seconds to go in or else it makes like a audible clank/crash noise, if I wanna get into first quick I clutch in, go to second, then slide it straight to first, works fine every time, I also can’t get into first unless I’m basically stopped or else it makes a grind, other then that when in first and shifting with my ghetto 2-1 method it works and sounds fine. Is this a problem with the synchro? Does first gear even have a synchro? When moving in first it’s smooth and no clanks or grinds, at low speeds it’s kinda jerky but that’s probably my motor mounts lol.
Could this be a clutch issue, it seems like tranny to me but I’m not an expert so I figured I’d ask here before I go fork over cash to my mechanic to diagnose it
Also does someone know if these transmissions not bad to work on or would I be better bringing it to a transmission shop

If only in first, I would be pointing blame at the synchro. If it is happening in other gears as well, I would be pointing on the clutch not disengaging 100%.
I have used the 2-1 shift pattern in every manual car I have owned. Don't really remember why I started doing that.....it was 25 years ago and that habit just stuck. I don't recall any of my cars ever grinding 1st, but I recall one or two of them fighting first if still rolling.

worn teeth in the 1-2 snychro set be by guess. but you'd have to open it up to verify. talk to bense, its his speciality

since I’m having motor issues as seen in my other thread if I have to pull the motor I’ll probably just pull the trans too and bring it to a shop to look at
