Some sort of QA issue. It started to grind shifting into 5th, 6th pretty much every time around 4-5k miles. Resulted in 3 trips to the dealer, one of those trips was for 2 days for them to replace the whole transmission assembly.

I'm used to clunky transmissions, the MS3 is one of the worst offenders there, so to me the FRS has a good shifting feel (when it works) but having a few weekends ruined by it makes it upsetting.
