New transmission rebuild-Reverse gear locks up

I've recently had the transmission rebuilt on our 900 convertible. The SAAB tech rebuit it himself. Everything works fine except reverse gear. Problem happens when first starting the car. I cannot get it out of reverse. Only if I let the car roll back slowly a couple inches, will it come out.
This problem won't happen for days, then it appears again. I've brought it back 3 times to the tech for the same problem, and he's always made some sort of adjustment (including motor mounts).
The rebuild included the reverse gear, and at $2,500.00 for the job, I'm thinking this is unacceptable. There was NO previous problems with reverse gear, pinion bearing went. Gear sound funny to me when reversing as well.
What possible issues could this be. I'd like to have an educated talk with my indie.
Thanks for the help,
Boris
