ymkmkrz-my problem is in all the gears. It’s been very difficult to shift into any gear while driving and it’s never popped out of gear.

That sounds a bit unusual. Maybe a rebuilt unit would be a better choice. Vertex rebuilds them and you send yours in for a core deposit assuming it’s rebuildable. They rebuild a lot of Porsche stuff, but i can’t personally vouch for the transmissions. They have been in business a very long time.

I put a used 5spd in my car back in 2012 and I think total cost including clutch and a serviceable used flywheel was $3200. Things have changed since then so $4k is probably about right if they do trans/clutch/FW/IMS.

While you are in there...
