    Default Problem with new car

    Just got myself a K reg Gsi in mint condition but when I got the car home and put the car in reverse, it came out of gear.No problems with any other gears just reverse keeps doing the same thing.Any help appreciated and please don't tell me I'm going to have to pay shed loads of cash to fix it as I need to spend 1K on insurance.Cheers

    could also be engine mountings+bad adjustment

    drive the car hard and see if the gear lever moves about a lot
