Hello everyone,

My car has decided to develop a fault its a Freelander 2 TD4 Manual (New Landover clutch and recon gearbox from Bells 18 months ago) and its Jumping out of gear on the Motorway, Only happens in 6th gear.

Has anyone come across this before?

Thanks

Hi,

Jumping gear, your gearbox is in it’s way out … you should take that seriously …

Regards.

Sounds like a decent on 6th has failed, possibly a broken spring. I'd expect a reconditioned box to last more than 18 months TBH.

There was a big twanging spring sound last week but I assumed it was one of the handbrake springs I installed coming off
