Since my gearbox renovation last winter, my MKII 850 has been requiring two de-clutchings to engage first gear from neutral, if I'm at a stand still. I've gotten use to it but starting think about if this is a common thing or indication of something wrong?
When lifting shift lever from neutral to first, there is no real perceptible click/notch on the first try while clutch is pulled in. Letting clutch out to pull away, there is no chatter and I find I'm still in neutral. A second clutch pull in and another shift lever lift up (little to no click or notchy feel), now I'm in gear as I let clutch out and roll away.
All other chages are very nice, even when going down to first, as long as I'm moving.
