mines the same.... 1st to 2nd... on a real cold morning it sorta grinds in complained about this to ford at 3000km complimetary check up thingo but they said it should losen up... I now have 20000km and its still there but only in winter... will see what happens at 30000km ← Sounds like you have had the same problem as me, I took it to ford and they decided that it was the sycros. They took the gearbox out and sent it off to get fixed they had to replace the sycros in 2nd and 3rd, and they replaced 3rd because it was ground down a bit. But I have got the car back and it seems as though the problem is still there, I called ford and he said to see if its goes away after 500kms and then to come and see him. By the way all this work was covered by waranty. You should take your car in and get them to drive it.
