Thanks for your help.

Had exactly the same issue. The issue is a misadjusted shifting linkage. The shift lever is adjusted too right and too way in front direction. Make a complete readjustment of your shifting linkage and make sure that all plastic bushings are still ok. If not, replace _all_ bad ones at first (on both shift lever and shift coupler). Then make a basic adjustment like shown in this video:
