It's hardly revving the piss out of it to change into 1st at 10mph/16kph from 2nd when the revs are only 2000rpm at that speed.
I just don't understand why you wouldn't just change into 1st at that speed or lower rather than start slipping the clutch or come to a stop, put it itno 1st and then move off again?
I understand gearboxes are tight cold, that's different. I wouldn't shift into 1st on the move when it's stone cold either.
