Synthetic oil helped my espada trans a lot. I also skip 2nd gear when the car is cold. I use the oil temp as a rough guide and don"t use 2nd until it reads at least 70 C. I"ve been trying to double-clutch from 3rd to 2nd and that does help also. Someone suggested practicing double-cltuching on an old VW, but I had a "66 beetle that was the easiest-shifting car I ever owned, so who knows?Peter
