    Default Transmission Help!

    I have a S80 transmission that kicks itself out of 5th. i can drive it normal and put it into 5th and release the clutch and it will stay. as soon as i hit the gas it kicks out. do i need new synchros? anyone have a place i could go to check it out. anything will help.

    sounds like the detent ball is worn out or the spring for it is not as strong as it use to be. or possibly the shift fork shaft is also worn out.
