the reason i want to change the oil and filter is, yesterday when overtaking with kick down it jumped out of gear, but when i pulled over and put it in park the gear box went back to normal and has been OK, have you herd of this happening before, have you any advice ?
cheers....

You probably have lack of fluid due to a leak. Check the level asap as lack of fluid can damage the box.

If the level is ok then change the fluid first and check the sump pan for metal debris.

£135+vat for the job is normal..
