He said there's likely nothing serious.
I'm going to ask him if he knows any good diesel mechanic up this way.
I will post results re transmission final root cause and fix as soon as I have it.
Cheers,

Regarding the gear shifting : It is very easy to remove the gear lever unit from the gear box (from the inside of cabin) . Remove center console , remove the rubber cover edges and push rubber cover up the lever .
There will be as far I remember 4 bolts to remove and the lever should come out. At the gearbox end of gear lever there would be a small plastic type coupling (squarish - that was broken on mine).
As you select the gears the coupling slides and moves the gearbox forks inside . Maybe it's worth looking at it .
That would be pretty much all you would be able to inspect the rest would be to do with gearbox internals .
