Im in the habit of rev matching 1st and 2nd when it is cold. I will blip the throttle just go to in first, and if second doesn't go in nicely I'll do the same. Seems to be working for me for years. Im about to change my trans and diff fluid next weekend with the same motul 300 that is currently in there. I'll update if I notice any difference.

Drivetrain > TL70 Manual > Shifter Lever Assembly > Installation > 11. ADJUST SHIFT LEVER POSITION

A few people on here have had to adjust this plate on their stock shifter that was misaligned from the factory. I had to install and align mine after a short lived experience with an IRP shifter and have had no issues before or after.

I doubt the STI shifter itself is to blame. It's a direct drop in replacement of the OEM one into the same carrier, and uses the same plate. My money would be on the plate not being aligned properly.
Great link, very interesting!!
