I have difficulty getting my car to shift smooth. Mostly 1st gear. You have to be very gentle getting it to go in gear. It will grind if you try to shift it fast. Sometimes there is a little trouble with it not going in other gears, but mostly first gear. The clutch point is high and seems fine.

Any suggestions?

Is this a recent issue? As others have said, bushings are a frequent culprit, as is proper clutch adjustment per spec not general feel, shifter linkage adjustment is another culprit, and ultimately it could be time for a tranny refresh.

Do a search on these topics and also on Dr. Evil - you will come up with numerous helpful threads about these topics.

Good luck
