I have a 2010 MCS 6 speed that suddenly doesn't want to shift into 3rd. I can row through the gears fine when stopped with the engine on or off. When moving though, third is difficult or impossible to get into. Sometimes it will slip in with a bit of grinding. Shop says new tranny needed. Does this sound right, or would a fluid change possibly fix this?

Sounds like the trans is worn out to me.
