if you have a selector problem the gears are probably all ok

The garage claimed it was not the selector and so sent the new one
back and refitted the old one. Do you think I should take it to a
second garage, perhaps one that specializes in gears, to have a
second opinion? TIA

No garage specialises in gears. There are specialist gearbox
re-builders/re-conditioners but they don't usually remove/refit the
box.

or diagnose the fault. I would look for someone that specialises in your
marque and model and ask them.
