Is this a normal thing with this year model? The owner did raise the issue to toyota at 40000kms but they said that its normal and not a fault.
Also the valve spring recall was done at 60000. After 8000kms is it safe to assume things are all okay?
Appreciate your urgent advice.
Thank you

Welcome to the group -
The rough shifting into second is normal for most people.
You car should be OK that many miles after the recall work.
I suggest you just practice the timing on the 1-2 shift, when you are able to do it smoothly
without using the clutch, you'll know you have the timing right -
