Default inner cv joint

Hi All

Today I thought I would get the s2 out So took it for a drive and when I got home I reversed it into the garage and it was makeing a small kind of rubbing noise had a look under the car and the inner cv joint had poped out of the gearbox and it was leeking gearbox oil out. So I jacked it up and poped the shaft/cv joint back in but its still makeing a small rubbing noise in reverse and pops out the cv joint but not when you put the steering on lock any ideas why this has happened does this mean I need a new inner cv joint.
