After you get it fixed, be sure to shift into 4th with your hand facing outwards towards the passenger side of your car:

I suggest a lot of you get used to this.

That looks like a very awkward way to shift. I'm curious - have you heard of any high performance driving instructors suggesting this technique?

I use the cupped hand method myself - avoiding the use of the thumb.

that is big time the way to shift, especially when over 6500rpm. 2 to 3 is even more awkward..thumb and index finger to aimed to the ground and using the space between them for shifting into 3rd, then it is an easy "bap" with the fingers to throw it into 4th. the gear shift is made to want to shift into the next correct gear, you just have to "feel" it....
