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

Try takeing the gear gaitor off and see if the plastic hook thatit uses to hook under the ledge has worn or snapped, my mates did-new gear stick from scrappy did the job!

could also be engine mountings+bad adjustment

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