Into neutral from 4th and 5th, while under acceleration at mid-revs. It did it a few times over the weekend and had never done it before in the 15 years I have had it. It's not doing it all the time but something is clearly amiss. Is this likely to be a sign that the gearbox is on the way out internally or could it be adjustment needed in the linkage etc?

Many thanks.

Sounds like a tired gear box. Had an old Vito that use to do that.

Yes, I had my linkages checked and they were reported as being in surprisingly good condition. No adjustments were needed yet it is still jumping out of 4th and 5th. I suspect therefore that the problem is internal to the gearbox.

Any recommendations as to where to get a recond box or send the current one? Ideas I have already are:

Many thanks.
