new to the mini world!

Hi all. I drive a 2005 JCW. absolutely love it!
one issue, after owning the car for 4 months my 5th gear has started making noise going into gear. (almost as if syncro is bad) any help?

How many miles are on the car? I would recommend changing the transmission fluid to Redline MTL for starters.
