Shifting to 2nd grinds.?

[john]

What year, turbo, manual?? Autos shift too. I would check your tranny fluid first. Getting low on fluid will make the tranny shift rough. 2nd gear is usually on of the weaker synchos (goes out first) on an AWD dsm. I would check to make sure you have suffiecient tranny fluid. I would then change it (Nobody probly has yet) and see how it is. Is this an all of a sudden problem or is it something which has slowly progressed??? More info please.
