Sounds to me like a problem with the tranny ![[Frown]](frown.gif)
The only other thing you could check is to adjust the shifter stops.

If it does it with both shifters.
Time to tear it down and examine my bet is syncros.

could be the synchros or a clutch adjustment is needed if it engages really low

clutch adjustment was my problem i thought i needed a new tranny also and then i ajusted clutch cable and it was perfect like a whiteboy with a tooth pick ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) good luck.

The stock T5s are really a weak transmission. My guess is that it may have a bent or a cracked shifter fork within the transmission which is not allowing full gear teeth engagement. How are the rest of the gears?

sometimes when people put on aftermarket shifters the shift is set too short and it might have dog toothed the first gear and the syncro causing it to pop out. i might have some parts to fix it ill let you know.
