Default 4th gear issue

Hi Guys,

had a search on the forum but could not find anything similar to the issue i am having.

When i am on the freeway at 100km/h in 5th, dropping gear into 4th at about 80km/h when taking an exit, it will not go into 4th. It is like the gear does not exist.

When i am driving normally though, 4th gear is fine, moving up from 3rd and down from 5th. Its only when doing say 80km/h or more in 5th.

any ideas? (gearbox oil was changed a few months back at the 100k service).
