I had mine changed 2 years ago, and had exactly the same "problem". it still does it now especially if you hold it on a hill in reverse. Still works fine so i've never bothered about it, but it's just a tad annoying.

Sounds like the selector cables, have you checked on the box? I think you can tighten up the reverse, details in the maintenance manual from memory
