Is anyone finding shifting from 2nd to 1st gear stiff ? Even after my Second service it is stiff . i have tried full clutch method has told to me by Honda , still it is not smooth it was when i brought it .

I think the reason why pressing the clutch is advised is because many times we tend to leave the car in 1st gear while starting it so pressing the clutch will ensure that the car starts even in 1st gear (not pressing the clutch when starting in gear gives the car a jerk and the car doesnt start).
Not sure about why brake pedal needs to be pressed, but i guess it is advised since the car may be on a slight slope n not pressing the brake may cause the car to start rolling.
Though both these things are not mandatory, however the user manual of a car manufacturer will always advice you to follow the best practices for your car

Any solutions ??
I asked a local car accessory shop and he tells me to spray red paint on it. I will get the spray near to the place I stay. Its a shop called esteem automobiles. Any1 heard of it? Will that spraying idea work in the first place ?

Found this on google. Hope it helps on my car too.
I Spray Painted On My Car Scratches !
I am also facing the same issue. Once i literally had to push the gear shaft so hard that i was worried i would damage it, but had no option since i was in the middle of the road and had to take a turn.
I thought this may be because my car is new and hasn't done much kms (only 1000 kms, 2nd service is due in October) and over the next few months the gears would become smooth automatically, but still the 2 to 1 shift seems a bit hard. During the first service, I informed the ASS about it and they replied that the car gearbox is built in such a manner that if you do not have the right speed to shift from 2 to 1, the gear will not fall in place. I personally haven't found this explanation satisfactory and will raise it again in the 2nd service which is due due.

how much did it cost you manish ?
My Service enginer asked me which car i was driving before i brought Brio ., i said my friends Beat and then he said ohh sir Beat Gears are different you can change gears in Beat even in half clutch but in Brio you have to engage full clutch and he told he has checked gear lubricants and all and every thing is fine .
But even in full clutch mode Gears are stiff , i am gonna ask my expert friend to check it out now

Spray paint and touch ups will not work well , you can go for Half Bumper Painting , Honda quoted me 2500 for Half Bumper painting for my Front section .
Yes I feel gear is little still stiff, particularly for 1st and 2nd shifts, even after 11 months of ownership, but stiffness has reduced a lot. I guess it depends on usage; more you use lesser will be the stiffness, this is my observation.
Thanks for the info brother but I have planned to go with corner bumper protectors instead. Have been quoted 1600/- for a set of 4 from the honda dealer here. This will cover the strain and protect its occurance in future too. So felt it was a better option.
