I’ve had my ‘26 WRX tS a few weeks now and it’s my first manual car. I’ve managed to get the hang of starting from a stop, but shifting to second always feels like a guessing game. Do I shift at 2500 rpm? 3000? 12mph? 15? I seem to never get consistent results and the car jerks a bit sometimes, others it’s smooth while seemingly doing nothing differently, is it my clutch control that is lacking? Going from second to third and onwards is no issue, just first to second.

Check your trunk storage for these little rubber plugs. They are supposed to be installed before you get the car but they were forgotten on my WRX. Make sure they were actually installed in your sills.

*Disclaimer: this is not my picture, I had already installed mine before I thought other people may have the same issue.
