wait, i'm confused... what it sounds like you're saying is while trying to shift into second the shifter seems to jump that direction anyhow. this is a bad thing how? i've experienced something similiar in both my evo and the lancer and always thought it was a good thing - a perfect shift. now if it's jumping out on it's own, that would be reason to worry.

Can I get some advise, or anyone else run into this problem?

If the shifter is popping out randomly just while you're driving that's a bad thing. If you're starting to shift and the shifter feels like it's being sucked towards the next gear by some mystery force, that's nothing more than the synchros being perfectly aligned. It's a good thing!
