the car drives fine, but you have to hold it in second, otherwise it just comes out? No crunching or oat. Perhaps a bit of adjustment to the rod underneath?:scared:

Could be that, worth trying adjusting it or your selctor fork in the box is slightly bent so time for new fork

I had simular problem, used to pop out of second when coasting or accelerating in 2nd. Turned out car was missing engines steadys back and front.

Common problem is the gear box as mention, does it jump out when you drive over speed bumps and simular where you half accelerating/backing off, my first r5 did it, it was fine when accelerating and slowly down, I used to drive with my hand on the gear stick to stop it doing it in 2nd and I still do it to this day when in a r5 :).old habits die hard
