I tried different settings on the gears, but it works for a couple of miles then it struggles to into gears or jumps out of gears. I did put transmission oil in so that is fine it scratches sometimes in the gears. What can be wrong and where must I start looking?

What grade oil did you use in the transmission, this transmission is what they call filled for life, you must use a very specific oil you will have to contact the dealer to get the correct specs, with the incorrect oil you can get selection problems.
