Default Gearbox issue

At low speeds gear changes easily with no problems but at high speeds fifth and sixth does not go in Any ideas what the cause of this could be?

Change the tranny fluid and then test to see if you still have the issue. If so, to a transmission shop you go.

Maybe you will get lucky and just blew up the clutch or something. I mean not lucky but better than if the tranny went out...
