HI I had a similar problem about a year ago, then i changed the gearbox oil for some premium stuff and problem solved.

My scenic had done about 58000miles when i changed the oil and im now well in to the high 70K area with absolutly no issues :)

the gearbox oil costs about £10 to £15 per liter tho and you will need to buy 4 liters as its a 3.5liter box.
