I am at somewhat of a loss in terms of what to do next. Any suggestions and guidance is most appreciated. Thanks guys.

Hi Dick Carne - did you solve the issue of your car jumping out of gear and if so, what was the root cause of the problem and how did you solve it?

I have the same problem having rebuilt the gearbox twice. Jumping out of gear lets down what is otherwise a great car.

Thanks
