This has caused me to grind second on a few occassions. Being a new drivetrain swap, the first few weeks I was going really easy on the car, and shifting very easily (it’s strangely difficult to drive a car easily, but slam it into each gear). Driving like that meant I would gently shift into second, but not get that extra clunk, or notch, or crunch, or however it’s best described before letting out on the clutch. Yeah, it makes a very angry noise when you do that.
I’m fairly certain what’s happening is the slider is engaging the blocker (first notch), and then there’s a second notch where the slider engages the gear. The problem is sometimes you feel both notches, but sometimes you don’t.
