Concerning point 1, do you mean that the clutch is too high so it takes a while before moving at stop lights and whatnot? I didn't really comprehend the question very much, sorry.

For point 2, many of the members have said maybe let the car warm up and get to operating temperatures and that seems to help. But I have noticed that when you shift from 1 -> 2 quickly at like 7-10mph it is a little smoother than shifting at a higher speed, but that is for me.
Thank you, glad to see the community is so welcoming.

For point 1, while the clutch is real high, I only meant that the vehicle feels sluggish in 1st speed wise, I guess I should shift to 2nd earlier and use that to get it going. For 2, yes the shift from 1-2 at slow speeds isn't a problem, altho what's the sweet spot for shifting at higher speed?
