I did the MTF oil change today and it's now PERFECT! 3rd gear issue is now solved.

Thank you everyone!

I've noticed now after turning off the engine after a drive, there's a dripping sound like liquid dripping on a metal pan. This was only heard after the gearbox oil change. I'm guessing it's the fresh oil dripping?

Change the gear box oil every 20,000 and you won't have any drama
