Popping out of third gear......

My 89 900i has just started to pop out of third gear with a clunk when I ease of the accelerator. The car is a relatively low milage car (<150 000kms) and in top mechanical nick otherwise.
Does any one have any ideas on what the problem is?
I sold up on 99s for this 900 so that I did not have to deal with this problem (and no, it is not my driving that causes it, as my 99 had the problem before I bought it).
Maybe the solution will be to take the engine/gearbox out and replace with a turbo (and engine!!) ? The gear box will never have any problems with the turbo engine running at 20 +psi!!
Hmmm, maybe I should just stick to na 16v and figure out how to fix this third gear problem. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
