Had some work done on gearbox last week (so guide pin has been disturbed)...
Jumps out of first sometimes when trundling along in a queue for instance. Could this be that it still needs a bit of adjustment or is it the box itself?

interesting one Keith cos mine does the same , doesnt jump all the way out , i've put it down to the gear box mount being 'worn'

mine does it too but i put it down to gearbox mounting and having a 5 speed linkage on 4 speed box never got any worse in last 2 years

so does mine....generally fine when pulling....jumps when rolling with clutch disengaged.

didn't know what to put it down to, other than age, and character!

Me to, usually when rolling in slow traffic!

tell you what Keith i'll change me gearbox mount at the teccy this weekend and see if it stops dropping out of first , mine also got a little better after i tightend up the bolt on the gearshift shaft

having a 5 speed linkage on 4 speed box never got any worse

hehehe same here must be a yorkshire ting

hehehe , i think chesterfield still has a sheffield post code doesnt it ?

you attending the teccy weekend Mr Angry ?

where's it at ? would'nt be going in van as it has no doors at the minute ala milk float stylee realy p!$$£d off with my painters took 4 weeks to prime front doors, slider & tailgate but they have primed them tonight would have like to have gone to loads of shows by now!

did the rear bush plate go on the front of the gearbox mounting plate ? If fitted at the rear then the pressure on the boot can be enough to pull it out of gear
