Hi Nev Swift,


I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are still having issues syncing a small playlist, and/or having issues with content you do not want synced, you may want to try disabling syncing, clicking apply, then enabling the "Manually manage music and videos" option and applying, as noted in the following article:


Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support
