First gear tends to be 'rough cut' in manuals, at least the ones I've driven. Like if I take my foot off the gas, the car behaves like I just hit the brakes. The low ratio is bound to bring out the worst sounds in your engine/trani. I assume you're not 'lugging' or 'chugging' your engine by letting it dip below the 500 rpm mark? One of my auto-only friends use to freak when i goofed and did that, he thought the engine was going to blow.
