2nd gear issue

My 986 (2002, 2.7l) has an issue with being in 2nd gear. When I touch the accelerator, the gear stick jumps forward - it doesn't come out of gear though. When I remove my foot from the accelerator, the gear stick sinks back into place.

Any ideas what would cause that? And more importantly, is this an expensive fix?

Just having a look for them on the web. Do you have a part number? And what kind of costs can I expect if I went to a Porsche specialist to have it sorted?
