second hand gearbox's but surely they should last longer than that?
-
seen it once .Go to a better place.it looked new but was a recon done bad. You can tell by the fluid that comes out of it, black as hell.
-
if its second hand how fitted it.Clutch can cause it ,if its on its way out.

well it all depends on what the condition of the gearboxes were like when you brought them. id say you've just been unlucky, where as if they were refurbished units then id say its the company's fault who put them together.

I havent changed it yet but the previous owner had changed it twice and i fear it is happening again, knowing him it probably was done wrong lol
-
how many times u done the box :smiley:

What are the symptoms of the failures?
Are you confident they have been the correct gearboxes for that engine type? Silly question - Is it possible the lower spec might have been fitted?
I'd also consider the flywheel as a potential cause. It could be sending judder/vibrations through the input shaft of the box.

when u put the foot down then once u let it off it makes a knocking noise from drivers side.
on the passanger side it vibrates above 60. ( not a loose whell or egg in tyre nor is it un-ballanced although may be susension)
jacked up front end and spun the wheels to discover a metal rubbing and banging noise :undecided:
