Ok heres my situation, i just boght a 92 Talon Tsi awd 5 speed last week. when i bought this car i had a good 20 min of practice that resulted in one pissed off owner

anyway ive been driving around and got everything down but now i cant get it into gear, ille be driving and everytime i try to shift into 2nd it goes in i push on the gas and then it likes to pop out

it does it in 2nd though 4th gears every once in a while but sometimes everything is smooth. Also iwhen i come to a stop and down shift into 1st gear i have to ram that damn thing in there because it just wont go. Now i dont know if im just slower than the average bear and missing something obvious, or if theres something wrong with the tranny. I talked to a friend and he had no clue what it was. I just bought the car and really dont want to have to rebuild the trans already. Anyone with some insight into my situation, let me know what you think.
