Default 2012 Manual Transmission Issues

The last few weeks it feels like my transmission has been harder to shift. I feel slight resistance when I'm shifting into gears, like its something is not quite meshed up, but I can still push past it. No obvious clutch issues. Clutch engages at same point, no slipping, no noises.

Any ideas?

Im only at 22K so I will probably take it into the dealer once I get off the road (travel for a living).

Has it been colder than usual at your location?

Well, then...I guess it's not temperature related.

Default i had that happen before

in a standard shift truck , it was a bent fork they said . my jeep shifts fine after they put new syncros in 3rd an4th gear it would not line up so it grinded going into 4th. But stiffness going into the gear with no grinding sounds to be a bent fork in tranny which means dropping the transmission obviously
if your under warranty not a big deal if not its kinda costly
