Peter,

I have roughly 2500 miles on a freshly rebuilt gearbox and have the same
issue.
If I am in third, and keep my foot off the pedal, allowing the car to
decelerate, in often comes out of gear.
You are not alone, and I don't think this is rare, or really a problem.

I will follow this thread with great interest.
