You know there is a fix for your problem... You should take it back to the dealer and have them replace your 3rd gear...

I have this problem too, its really notchy in like 2nd, 6th, and sometimes reverse doesn't engage. it's really starting to piss me off, but my third gear is fine, so i'm not sure what to do at this point. Anybody have any suggestions? I heard that you could change the manual transmission fluid and it iwll help should i try to get honda to do this under warranty?
