Hi guys. Just collected a Micra sr. Been fine for 45 miles on way home and it now keeps popping out of 5th gear with a crunching noise. Any ideas?

Gonna have to drop to 60mph now in 4th to keep same revs as 5th at 70 lol

Hey, glad you made it home.

Thats a bit weird. Never came across that issue whilst on the road. I didnt change the mounts since the engine swap in 2010, has the original g/b too. It was sitting around for 3 or 4 weeks. Could the trans/oil have gone gloopy?

That sucks dude, really sorry to hear that. Fortunately gearboxes are not that expensive or hard to get :).

Still gutted though.

Fitted a induction kit today from halfords. Yes it's rip speed but it was £10 new lol. Now I feel 17 again. Love this car :)
