Long story on my Corolla 1.4, out of warranty gearbox had to be rebuilt after the bearings failed; the repair is now out of warranty, and I am getting problems putting the box into reverse (jumped out of reverse after selecting it & moving this morning). Any idea what's causing this ?

Lots ! 143K miles - reverse sometimes takes me pressing the clutch 2 or 3 times in & out to get it to engage...
