got a problem

ok over the last 2 months my car has been shifting so bad, its just in the shifter though, everything else is fine. anyway i took my car into the honda dealer for them to look at it and they said they couldnt find anything wrong. so they put a lot of lubricant on inside of it and it shifted better for about the first 2 days, now about a week later its as bad as it was before. its so bad that it comes out of gear sometimes (2nd and 4th) and i have to go into neutral first before i can shift into 2nd because it doesnt go in to gear just going straight down. Anyone know what could be wrong that they possibly missed, because its hard to drive with the way it is?

by the way its an 01 ex coupe with 78k miles on it


thanks
