Is your clutch disengaging properly? Try bleeding the system and adjusting the master cylinder rod.

Does it shift smoothly when off?

Do you have a fluid leak? Is it only 2nd gear?

Re: 2nd gear grinds What should i check for
does it happen only when you shift fast into the gear? when the car's cold? at certain rpms?

Re: 2nd gear grinds What should i check for
If it is only doing it in second then more than likely it is a bad syncronizer inside the transmission if it was doing it in all gears then I would expect it to be something with the clutch hydraulic system

Sounds like your syncro is dead, throw in your spare and call it a day.
