I discovered the problem was that I was shifting too fast. Instead of pushing the lever from a higher gear to 2nd gear in one fast motion. I had to wait half a second or so at the neutral position, and then it was able to go into 2nd gear.
I have no idea why this is the case. My e46 BMW didn't have this limitation.

Sorry but somethings not right. I have a 228 manual and I can downshift into second with no problem at all and I absolutely do not have to pause In neutral. Take it back to the dealer.
