I have the same problem. Sometimes something blocks it going into gear so I have to release the clutch and try again. Problem is most often from a standing start, although rolling downshifts from 2nd sometimes require waiting for things to "line up" inside. My saab indy said the linkage was ok, and suggested putting Synchro Shift gear fluid in (I know I'm bringing up a religious topic here). This has helped quite a bit, but I still shift slowly, go easy in 1st and 2nd, and try to get it into gear before the light goes green. It seems to be better when it's warmed up, but it's more intermittent than constant. (92 2.1 N/A)
