Title says it all. I’ve driven 3 other manual cars when I was test driving which car to buy and distinctly remember that there wasn’t much effort in getting a smooth shift (just release the clutch smoothly and add a tiny bit of gas at the end). With my Si it seems like every single shift is unpredictable and extremely sensitive. It’s almost impossible for me to shift smoothly without adding gas in gears 1-3 and yes I am being smooth and steady with the clutch pedal as I understand the mechanics of rev matching. Having such a light clutch pedal doesn’t help either since I can feel no friction. It’s made me even regret buying a manual car even though I love manuals. Has anybody dealt with the same problem or have any solutions for me because I’ve put 13k miles on the car and most days I cannot shift in a smooth manner. It’s extremely frustrating
