I have the same problem, I think I'm converting over to a TH400, because I will have some warranty issues as you can see in the sig, and it would cost a lot to rebuild...

There is a TSB issued for this. You can cite TSB 01-07-29-003A with your dealer. They are supposed to replace the shift fork, 3-4 synchronizer, 3rd gear blocker ring and 3rd speed gear. It's all under warranty if you haven't busted out of the miles, yet.
Good luck.

mine's even wierder - downshifting from 6 to 5, the gears occasionally clash as the synchronizer may or not engage. Aggravating. The dealer claims that he can't reproduce the problem, but, there it is!
Maybe I should demand that he let me take him for a ride!... heh heh heh <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" />
