Sounds like the needle roller bearing on the main input shaft has started cutting into the shaft causing play in the box , from memory third is direct with these boxes , you will most probably find that within the next 10-15k miles the synchro's will go in third and fourth causing it to graunch from second into third and third into fourth , from there you have about 10k before you will not be able to keep it in gear in third .

Thanks CTS

How big a job is it to replace the bearing? Or once it's started to go, does it take the main shaft with it?

can be a tricky job if you don't have the right tools
