CMS send back the old second gear and it is very obviously worn on the teeth, it was shot.

So if your car pops out of second on acceleration and deceleration or just deceleration it is likely a bad second gear.

Just out of curiosity, Silber, how much did the job cost? I think my second gear synchro is going out, too. Not as blatantly malfunctioning as yours, but there's a bit of a clash when the engine is cold (not necessarily in cold weather, just engine cold).
