3 times today my TR jumped out of 5th gear with the cruise control on, on a flat peice of highway, WHY? the box was replaced 20,000km ago, and no matter what I do with the throttle, ie chop and reaply agressivly at 100km/h i cant make it jump out. Whats going on.
the car is a TR SE, 2.6l, manual (obviosly) with 267,000km on the clock.

gday
was your clutch kit replaced with the gearbox? you might find its a weak pressure plate

My TR kept jumping out of 5th gear, discovered that 5th gear syncro was faulty. After this was fixed it no longer jumps out of 5th gear...
