I recently bought a 2001 Cobra and I noticed when the car is fully stopped and you try to shift into 1st gear, it grinds occasionally, even with the clutch pressed all the way in. Any ideas on what it might be and what I can do?

Hey definitely a little late but that is most likely a synchronizer problem. Hopefully you didnt lose 1st gear yet that will happen if you don't replace the sychro. I had the same problem in 3rd and 4th and ended up losing the gears completely. Good luck
