Ok, here's the poop. I reset the linkages to try and solve the problem, twice. No dice. I can upshift through the pattern fine until it gets real hot, then 3rd is stubborn. Downshifting from 5/4 is sometimes an issue but 4/3 is no dice. no way. no how.
Bently is seriously vague on this. I'm assuming its the trans and or the shift selector rod issue and not the box under the shift lever itself which still feels nice and tight.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated as it's a safety issue and goes to the shop tomorrow. Also, I would assume since it's a lubricated internal part it's covered under the powertrain warranty?.!
FWIW it also has the spyder gear/thrust washer noise and had the fluid changed every 20K (90K currently) since new and the "special fluid" for te noise 8K ago.
