From 2ND GEAR POP-OUT UPGRADE-GBOX Transmission :
Several of the Porsche gearboxes will occasionally experience a '2nd gear pop out issue.' There are a couple of ways to address this issue. But this fix is the easiest, and by far the least expensive option for the DIY guy or gal. Installation is relatively simple and can be completed with the gearbox still installed in your car.
The GBox upgraded detent will not fix a pop out problem if there is already internal damage to the gearbox, but it will certainly help prevent it. We install it in all of our rebuilds, and we have yet to see a 'pop-out' problem return after the installation of this part. Even if you have never experienced this issue, this upgraded detent is cheap insurance to ensure that you have done everything you can to keep it from popping up in the future.
