About a year ago, there was a discussion about gear-shifting problems in VW Rabbits; as I recall it, the remedy was pretty simple. Does anybody out there have the exact details? My specific problem: it is nearly impossible to find 1st gear easily. I am just as likely to wind up in 3rd gear as in 1st. - Bob Milosavljevic - ...ihnp4!inmet!milos

Problem: the gentleperson has a problem shifting into first.
A friend's '83 GTI that I used to drive also had a similar problem -
finding first gear was a real problem! Fortunately, if you shift
into second first, you get it.
My '72 850 spider used to have a similar problem - if you didn't
shift into second first, when you let the clutch out it would pop
out of first and you'd be rolling backwards down the hill (oops)...
