n00b question but I gotta ask it ..
Everytime I go from neutral to first I cant seem to get the car into first without it like kinda jumping.
Like, vroom vroom vroom vroom .. if that makes any sense ..
Is it just me? Seems like no matter how slow I let the clutch out it still happens ..

You mean your car's doing the bucking bronco when you're beginning to accelerate?
Yeah you're a n00b. Get used to it, eventually you'll learn where and how to start letting it out and giving it gas.

It's called the process of learning, hell i've only been driving a manual civic for about a month and a half now and it happens every once in a while. Just push the clutch in and try again. Good luck

Could also be attributed to a wearing throw out bearing. That'll make it not engage as smootly as it can.

I really am not sure what your trying to say. If it jumps in first gear (kinda jerky) it could be the clutch as well.
If your just having trouble putting it into first from a stand still then it could be the throwout bearing or possibly synchros?

Actually, when I started driving, bucking only happened in first. First gear is the hardest to initiate. That's the gear that you really have to master. Anything after 1st gear is a breeze.

I agree.
But it doesnt seem like something im doing wrong. Ill literally let the clutch out as slow as I possibly can and it will still do that. No matter how slow or fast I do it .. it always "bucks."

ah the spazum car shake, your letting out the clutch to quick most of the beginner drivers get that when they first learn the stick. floor the clutch when it happens.
