Sounds like a linkage problem of some sort. Try pushing down on the shifter before shifting. Mine had some sort of a similar problem and that usually helped. Something was loose or not seated properly in the linkage. Was going to get in there and check it out some day but a poorly driven Freightliner made it unnecessary. Hopefully your experience will be different.
