Default Hard to shift

2006 Z06 Sometimes while driving easy around town going to second is stiff and has to be pulled real hard for it to go into second gear, no other gear is hard to go into. At times it gets stiff trying to downshift back to second. Just happens every now and then.

I have not experienced this, but I would have guessed the 1-4 lockout was engaged. That, naturally, would not explain the 3-2 downshift. As with most problems, I hope it will simply "go away" by itself with time.
