Second Transmission seems to be going

I noticed a slight resistance in third and fith gear. Seems like its becomimg more prominent.

Anyone else with a second trans starting to have problems?

The first manual transmission was replaced just after 3K miles. I am now coming up on 5100 miles and the ploblem is returning.

mine was different

My first transmission was replace because of grinding in third gear. My second transmission doesn't grind but 5th & 6th gears require more uhhmph in order to get it into the gate. Thankfully, I'm usually never in much of a hurry for those gears. If it was second,third, or fourth, I'd be pissed. So far thats it and even though I've put about 5,000 miles on the second transmission, it doesn't seem to be getting any easier. Well, at least there's no grinding(knock on wood).
