For 997's with a manual gearbox, an 'upgrade' is now available. I had a call from my local OPC on Friday, and have been-in already as it doesn't take long.
It would seem that the gearbox cable can become kinked on entry to the 'box, making it difficult to engage a gear (first on mine) and in theory premature wear. The upgrade is to straighten the cable and fit a retaining bracket. I asked the guys to take before and after pics which I'll post here as soon as...
There isn't a recall as it's not a safety issue, but like the creaking suspension it may effect some cars.
You heard it here first ! (I hope!)
