Default Re: 6 speed hard to drive or me?

My roadster was always notchy from 1-2. I replaced the tranny fluid a couple years ago with no improvement. Last summer it stopped going into 1 and 2 completely. Took it to my indie shop and they found the shift linkage cable had become partially disengaged. They refastened it, wrapped it with a tie-rap, AND adjusted the linkage. A miracle - the car shifts very well from 1-2, although not as smoothly as my Audis. There is an adjustment instruction in the shop manual that is available from this forum.
