Getting into second gear is very 'notchy' and gets very bad in cold weather and when the tranmission is not warmed up. At times it can be very hard to get into 2nd gear and it grinds, this has been reported by many other rsx type-s owners I have spoken with. This can be very dangerous if you are trying to get into second gear and you are not able to.
