3rd to 4th gear shifting!

I have a question guys ive been having my 08 g37s 6 speed for about a mo. Started getting used to the gears at first. Shifts perfectly in the morning and at night! Been having issues around 110 degrees and more in az so when i shift from 3rd to 4th it feels soft but it still goes into gear. Clutch seems fine because i can drive it early in the morning and everygear is smooth. I wonder if its the heat or syncro. I need help im new to the vqs and need advice! It has 82k original miles.

I cant even tell that i shifted when i put in 4th but it does go into gear it just does not feel like the other gears when i shift into it. Im scared that 4th gear is getting to be blown but i never drove it rough or anything and its been okay for the mo ive had it

I will in a week and see what happens. Its just weird because like it goes right in gear but its just really soft when shifting into 4th. So i can literally just pull my shifter down and smoothly into gear. 1st 2nd 3rd you definitely feel that your in the gear. Would i recommend redline trabsmission fluid or oem?

So update i took it to a aamco at first before even test driving with my description they said it was the transmission. So they test drove it and concludes thats its a shifter assembly or shift cable! Geez that was a close call i was so scared i didn't believe them at first saying it was the transmission just with my description
