Also unfortnately, I cant figure out if that is the problem without removing
the gearbox and doing surgery.? I will drive with it for a bit and monitor
it to see if it gets better or worse.

Now's a good time to learn to double clutch Aaron. My Ford pick up has 3rd
gear synchro getting sloppy and a straight shift from second to third will
grind. A momentary pause in neutral on the way to third, while letting the
clutch peddle up briefly, makes the shift smooth and quiet.
I spent a few years driving 10 speed trucks, most of the time not using the
clutch except to start moving ( I don't suggest this in our cars) and learning
to double clutch as necessary, going up and down the gears.
Try it, and with practice, it will become second nature and you can put off
the transmission work for some time.
