So my 02 5MT grinds when engaging in 1st gear. The shifter goes in fine and is actually smooth since I just changed the gear oil. However I have this issue about 80% of the time. My clutch is slipping pretty bad so would that be a possible cause? Getting a new clutch done at RBMS this week.

Oh and the grind goes away often after driving for a least 15 minutes. Which isnt much help since my drive to work is 10 lol
