i have the same issue- I work for bmw and have had multiple techs as well as my shop foreman drive the car and my car grinds from 1st to 2nd gear at high rpm.
It sounds like i have a bent shift fork. Sometimes, my car will stick in 2nd gear and will not come out-
other times, it will not engage 1st gear.
All of the other car enthusiasts at work made fun of me until it happened to them too- now they are all saying it needs a transmission.....
I just have to shift 'quickly' from 1st to 2nd and 90% of the time, it will go into 2nd.
I can shift from 2nd to 3rd gear as fast as i want with no issues-
