Re: Popping out of gear
I would allow for a rebuild gearbox if i were you its done 150k so due one anyway so a grand at least if you get Aiden to do it for you and do the oil plates at the same time.

Re: Popping out of gear
I've had the popping out of gear problem for the past three years, the gears haven't got any worst, I just have to hold it in gear when starting off, however I would still factor in an extra grand for a rebuild, still worth it if the rest of the van is cosher.
