Thanks,
But you can drive in 5th gear,and select it without any grind,but when it has been in 5th for a while it works out to neutral....

Any other info.
Thanks,

still be the synchros there was a similar problem on foresters and legacys on first gear it used to pop out on overrun but you could still get the gears ok

What makes you so sure it isn't the loosening locknut Skassa, have you stripped the box and checked it? The way you describe it working its way into neutral sounds exactly like this problem...

The guy who owns the car and another that have had this problem took the rear of the gearbox and checked if the nut was loose and it was not loose,so i hope that they made sure that it was on tight
I will get them to check again,but i donīt think thatīs the problem.

Thanks,
