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 to match engine speed to wheel speed, 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.
Okay so basically before pushing it into 5th I just need to give it a little more time to do it's magic?
