Yes, I sometimes feel an uncomfortable click when shifting to third at the wrong speed. I think it also has to do with shifting technique - these days I hold the shifter in my hand while putting it in gear, rather than just throwing it in gear like I used to. The gearbox is temperamental, sometimes it wants to be held and rowed, and sometimes it wants to be thrown.
