My g doesn't want to take off?

Hello all G's owner, So today when i was getting ready to leave to work, for some reason when i was trying to get going on first gear it feels like the car doesn't want to move. It will feels like i am not giving it enough gas as if it was in a higher gear and i'm trying to take off. This only happens on the first gear by the way the other gear shift smoothly. Suggestions anyone?

Seems like it's not downshifting to first after you stop. Something is amiss.

"My g doesn't want to take off" have you tried alcohol? Usually works...

Bad gas? Plugged fuel injectors? How many miles, what year?

not a mechanic but i would get your transmission checked, sounds like your 1st gear is shot. I would also check the minor things 1st like clutch fluid,any leaks,when was the last time you changed clutch,pp,etc.

I would say maybe the clutch is slipping.

its a 2006 G35 coupe 6MT with 70,000miles and sometimes my clutch gets stuck midway and i would have to lift it back up with my foot. You guys think it can be my clutch master cylinder? Maybe that has something to do with the topic?

When my car was jacked up, I found the rear wheels really hard to spin. Replaced the rear diff fluid and the rear spins 100x easier. Might help with bogging down from a stop. My 06 also had the sticky clutch issue, try bleeding the clutch line until it's all fresh, feels a lot better now, and hasn't stuck yet on me.
