How We Help

After diagnosing the problem with your gearbox, we will usually recommend one of two options:

If the gearbox has major faults, we may suggest a complete unit exchange. This would involve replacing your current gearbox with a reconditioned gearbox – we have a wide range of high-functioning gearboxes in stock and can offer a fixed price for this replacement. This is usually the faster option, as we can perform a gearbox replacement in just one day.

If the unit can be fixed, we can perform a comprehensive gearbox repair service. This may take between three to seven days. Complicated cases could take longer, but we will advise on the expected timeline when you receive your initial quote. All gearbox repairs are carried out by our experienced team and performed in the workshop for full quality control.

All of our gearboxes are covered by a 12-month warranty, giving you enhanced peace of mind.
