The car needs to be almost stationary, then it goes in fine. Have tried blipping the throttle and double-clutching and neither help. Goes into 1st very easily when stationary.

Btw, have recently changed gear oil to Porsche gear oil and that did not help.
Couldn't you just roll to a stop in second?
