    A friend has a 1999 Golf 1.9 Tdi and last week while driving on the motorway it jumped out of 5th gear.
    And it won't stay in 5th since .
    Changed gear oil and renewed bearing in the selector tower on top of the box as selector shaft had a lot of play in it .
    But no difference - gear change has improved a lot but still jumps put of 5th.
    Have read that 5th gear can be replaced with box in car .
    Any one done this and probably more importantly where did you get the parts and how much were they ?
