I used 3D transmissions in Reading

They were happy to fit my supplied gearset and clutch, their warranty is against their work only. In fact they had to take it apart again as the workshop manager spotted a badly fitted oil seal on his inspection before release to me.

They are also happy to work on a gearbox that has been removed and give a discount accordingly.

This was my experience too, their guarantee is for the work not the parts.

Most of the work that a transmission shop does is on boxes that are "off" the car. Garages diagnosing a box problem and stripping the box out, sending it along to the specialist as a bench repair at best price. The garage then refits and all are happy.

M&T Transmissions in Sheffield are very good if thats in your area.
