Unfortunately, this is typical. Some have had the dealer replace the manual transmission fluid, with little or no improvement. You can try to replace with a higher quality synthetic manual transmission fluid (amsoil, redline, royal purple) as some have had better luck with these. This will not void your warranty, and is cheap and easy to do yourself. Otherwise, this is something you'll have to live with.

I have the same problem in an 01. Is it something I will be able to live with, or is it the transmission getting ready to die?
