If it's jumping out of second you can bet the engine has been punished too.

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Re: 987 Cayman S
It’s been an age since I did anything on these but definitely have a memory of some sort of second gear issue caused by a shift cable sleeve which was very fixable.
Search for it on Rennlist, there will be threads.

Re: 987 Cayman S
Ah my bad. I assumed it was the same issue as on the same vintage 911 manual gearbox - synchro goes on 2nd and 3rd on tracked, modded and high mileage cars, and it starts jumping out of gear, apparently.Sam wrote:It’s been an age since I did anything on these but definitely have a memory of some sort of second gear issue caused by a shift cable sleeve which was very fixable.
