Gear Pops /slips/ jumps out to neutral

The fill plug was missing?

Serious stuff!

I doubt there is anything you can do except rebuild the transmission or get one in a junk yard.

But I might be wrong.

Well I am trying the cheapest solution first ie to change the gearoil and fill it upto optimum level. if that does not work then i will think of getting the one from junk yard.
But my question is if there is any filter that needs to be changed as well during gearoil change??

No there is no filter.

You are right change the oil. You might find metal flakes in the oil. Or you might not. Not is good!

One trick we used to do with a transmission making noise/popping out of gear was change the oil and add a tube of molybdenum additive.

But change the oil and DRIVE THAT SUCKER! If it still pops out of gear my experience (with old VWS) tells me the trans will eventually go. But that might be a long time from now. In the meantime you can further evaluate the car too see if you want to put more $$$$ into it. And find a transmission in a junk yard.

Good luck!

Tell me what happens!

Hmmm Im in the US so I have a feeling things sold here wouldnt be sold where you live. I would google molybedum additive and see what shows up.

Or ask at a local parts store for the same.
