I guess I misinterpreted what he meant by "feel the gears". Because the OPs next post makes me agree with you that its just a notchy shift.

Honestly Im just looking for dealer to do whatever to fix it, I have that warranty might as well use it.

I don't think anything is wrong with your transmission. I think you're just trying to force the trans into gear before the synchros have time to do their job, resulting in a shift that feels notchy. It feels like the gears are fighting you because they are. The synchros need a little time to actually, you know, synchronize, and if you're trying to slam the car into gear before that happens, yeah, you're gonna feel a little resistance. That's normal transmission behavior. So, there wont really be anything for the dealer to "fix".
I think this is a driver fix rather than a car fix.
