The enigma just got solved 
What is basically happening is that the clutch cable's filet, where gets adjusted in the engine mount, has worn out.
Basically the worn fillet makes it looser or harder, at that tipping point that sometimes allows for the gear to shift or does not.
Giving it couple of turns temporary fixed the issue. After testing for 1 week and all good I changed it all together and everything is butter smooth.
For sure it is not related to the lift.. unless the guys at the garage hammered the clutch bracket accidentally somehow and damage the fillet, or who knows. Anyhow, don't want to blame anyone, just happy that it got sorted and I have a new clutch cable
Thank you very much guys for all the pointers.
