New to the manual box on the GTD, having previously had a DSG GTD.
Probably one in eight changes from 2nd to 3rd gear doesn't go in. I'm tall and I thought maybe the seat (being all the way back) was too far back and I wasn't getting the clutch all the way in, possibly explaining not finding 3rd. I moved the seat forward slightly and it didn't make any difference.
It seems to me that perhaps the gear lever isn't centred 100% when I push forwards to get third. It's like the gear isn't there. When I let go and try again it'll go in.
I've driven manual cars for 21 years and never had this problem on any other.
Can anyone else relate to this? Do you think I have a problem?
