this should be in the trannsmission section, could be the syncros on 3rd gear are worn. try chaning the tranny fluid with new genuine honda manuel tranny fluid or gm syncromesh and see if that helps

Not a problem, if you have any questions about how to change the fluid or are concerned about if you are doing it right just pm me.
