    Gearbox fitting £££££

    How much should I expect to pay to have a gearbox fitted? Unless someone wants to offer

    Mines whining a bit and has started dropping a bit of oil.


    Also do I buy a new box or refurb mine???

    I got one from Renault - exchange item..

    Mine whined for about two months.. then, *BANG* - two holes in it and a road covered in oil.

    It was dropping bearings all over the place, haha.

    I might be picking up a cheap willy as it needs a box and clutch.

    How does the "Renault" way go then?? Might have a bash myself, lol

    as 2 live says, £150 if the place dont like bumming you dry. garage I use in warrington do it for £150, but I'd take it to 2 live as he's more conscientious and will do a better job than a garage.
