Title: gerarbox reconditioners
Post by: mk2bal on 05 September 2010, 16:42

anyone recommend a good company for gearbox reconditioning? my 020 16v box is leaking, crunching and blows oil up the speedo cable! ive seen a company do em for £400 with nut and bolted diff's, does this sound about right or is there anyone on the forums that does it a bit cheaper?  :wink:

£400 is a good price for a full rebuild

Sounds pretty normal to me.

Given you have no location, I'm going to guess Paisley. Luckily, there is a good workshop just down the road from you in Paisley on canal street that will re-con a box for you.
