Default Bad transmission?(not clutch buzz)

Ok so about 6 months I was driving around and I got on it in 1st and at around 6k it jumped out of gear and grinded horribly. Didnt think to much of it till it happened about 2 weeks later. I took it in and got the transmission fluid changed and went and drove the hell out of it that same weekend and it was fine, no problems at all. Well now im in iraq and have had a buddy taking care of the car for the past 5 months. Hes drivin it 3 times and he said it did it to him twice. Its only in 1st gear and at around 6k. Has this happened to anyone before or know the problem?

there is a service bullitin on this issue 05-009. it involves replacing the 1-2 gear syncro set. Last one I had in the shop I replaced the syncro and it still did it. So the customer got a whole new trans.
