2nd Gear lock out

Anyone having issues shifting into 2nd gear? Since I bought the car back in 06' it had a tendency to lock me out of second gear. To be a little more specific, when up-shifting or down-shifting into second, it will go halfway then just stop. Its as if the shifter is being pressed against something and just won't go all the way into second. Sorry if that description was confusing but I can't think of a better way to describe the situation. Has anyone had any problems like this?

My car does this when cold. I wont even be able to put it into second until i pump the clutch a couple times or wait for the engine to warm up some. I blame alot of it on the shitty royal purple thats in the trans now. Once i go down the road alittle ways and the fluid in the trans gets movin around its perfectly fine after that. It never grinds into gear.

That's the odd part, it does it regardless of temperature. I guess I'll try changing out the tranny fluid and see what happens. Either that or I need to pump my clutch at every stop light lol.

I would guess the shifter cable is not assembled to the transmission right.

If it's not the fluid or the cable links, then it's likely something in the transmission itself: synchro, hub, arm, etc. Not cheap to pull it off and tear it apart.
