Hi all, I've had my new 09 speed3 since the 11th and I have a question.
Is it normal for the gearshift to vibrate/be jumpy in first gear? It only happens in first gear accelerating and it's not going to pop out. I just wanted to ask since every with every other gear, the gearshift is super calm.
 
MY 08 MS3 was like that too for the first month or so I had the car. I was worried it was a syncro issue but it settled down over time. There will always be some play in the shifter but as long as it doesn't pop out of gear your fine.
