Third gear grind

Hi all.

I did a search on this topic, but the only similar post I could see dated from two years ago, and even then it wasn't exactly the problem I am experiencing.

Recently, I have noticed that my 2008 987 (2.7), with 24,000km on the clock, has started making a sporadic grinding sound when I select third gear.

I does not happen all the time, and when it happened first I assumed I had changed too quickly or hadn't the clutch pedal depressed. However, subsequent occurrences have assured me that this is not the case.

It can happen when going from 2nd to 3rd, or from 4th back down into 3rd - but generally it happens at higher revs. The car is still under warranty, so I will be pointing it out when the first service comes around.

But in the meantime, do any of you knowledgeable people have any ideas?

Cheers.
