Top service by bodsy
I had a gearbox flush this morning by Ian in what you might call damp conditions! it was like water off a ducks back to Ian who just got stuck in and got the job done!
Thanks again

Hope you kept young bods suitably fuelled with bacon butties. Wouldn't want him going on an enforced diet.

Unfortunately no bacon in the house or goodies because I’ve started a self enforced diet! I kept him thawed out with coffee even though I can’t stand the nasty stuff! D3 x2 now gone

Did it make any difference . Mine seems a bit knuckly if that makes sense I'd say rough feeling when changing but it's more the me mechamism I can feel . Bodsy would you be able to pm me a price I'm in york you be been before cheers.

It didn’t make a big difference to mine as there wasn’t a problem beforehand, it was done for preventative maintenance reasons! The oil that came out wasn’t overly dirty either because it’s believed to have been changed before! I had a quick spin up the road afterwards and everything was smooth! D3 x2 now gone

Damomerlin your profile says yours is a manual gearbox is this correct? This is for automatics only! D3 x2 now gone
