Sometimes when I'm driving, I clutch in between gears, and then the shifter seems to not want to go into that gear. Like 2nd for instance more than any other. Then if I clutch again, it will go in fine. Then occasionally it feels different going into gear, where it's almost like it's grinding a little (in the shifter, not the trans) or a little loose/rattley feeling. It's weird. I don't know if this is a normal thing with stock setup or there is something wrong with mine. Could it be bad bushings or something? Or does the stock clutch just suck and having to fight it occasionally is normal?
