my car is a front wheel drive 1989 Toyota corolla station wagon, In 4th gear it jumps out of gear with a loud bang under heavy load,up a hill or heavy acceleration. In 5th gear it comes out of gear when I lift my foot off the accelerator. Is this the Transmission or another drive train part? Thank you for your help.
