I've noticed on the 986/996 6-spd I've driven that going from 1st-2nd can be somewhat tricky if you haven't gotten used to it. Here is what would happen to me;

I'd go to shift into 2nd and think it was in gear.....it wouldn't be,the shifter would shimmy right before it grinded. I've gotten used to it but it did happen 3 or 4 times.
I think it was do the very long and vague stock shifter assembly.

I installed a 9x7 shifter assembly in two 9x6 6-spd. It really gave me more confidence in letting you know whether you in gear or not.

Could that be happening to you?
