Exactly as the title says, I have just had a new gearbox, clutch, bearing etc fitted and decided to take her for a run. Had to drive to Southend in fourth, try to put it into fifth and she'll stay there for a few seconds then pop out. When I fitted the gearbox, I did no adjustments whatsoever, just slapped it in. Could it be something I have missed, or should I start getting worried, just spent sh*t loads of money getting this sorted.
Cheers.

Doesn't sound good mate, as I'm sure you already know a popping out 5th bearing is the sign of a box on the way out!-
