Hello
Is there a list of reputable garages that have the capability to mega flush a gearbox. I have searched the threads for what I can think of to try and locate this, but it comes up nothing found.
I am in Rutland, so leicestershire, northamptonshire are the largest counties if there are any within these locations?
Kind regards
Jay

Geoff flushed my gearbox yesterday and the improvements in the gearbox were immediately apparent. The overall gear changes are much smoother, acceleration seems much smoother and most importantly, the shunt that I used to get when pulling to a halt has gone completely!
I would highly recommend a good flushing from Geoff to anyone with an older or high mileage vehicle!

Hi,
Firstly I am getting my Timing belt, Diesel pump belt and Oil pump / Housing replaced as a preventative (Already booked it into the Stealers to get it done, as I do not want to take any chances with this part), I will then be looking at getting the flush done as a preventative also.
Couple of questions in relation to the flushing please Geoff -
Do you need a ramp or anything in particular to be able to get this done?
How many vehicles would you need to be available to make the trip viable for you, and associated costs per vehicle would it entail for the flush (can PM me this information if you need it kept away from public?
With this information, it gives me enough to start to look at numbers to make it worth youyr while.
Kind regards
Jay

I will do Geoff, as you seem to have a good reputation for customer service and workmanship which is a must for me I am afraid. I am very fussy who I let loose on my vehicles
Kind regards
