Bosch 8.0 ABS / ESP Module Faults – Testing & Repairs

Bosch 8.0 ABS / ESP Pump Module Problems
The Bosch 8.0 ABS / ESP Modulator unit is much more complex than the earlier Bosch 5.3 and Bosch 5.7 ABS ECU’s. We have been successfully repairing these units for just over 5 years now and are able to fully test, repair and rebuild these units with a lifetime warranty.

Most commonly we’re seeing failed units come from Audi A6 / S6 Quattro (4F2 / 4F5) manufactured between 01/2005 – 06/2006 but the same failing part is fitted widely to a variety of vehicles including:

Renault Master + Traffic (PF6) Reconditioned Gearboxes – Repairs & Rebuilds

Renault Master & Traffic (PF6) Reconditioned Gearboxes problems
The Renault Master and Renault Traffic (PF6) manual gearboxes (5-speed and 6-speed) are known for wearing out all their bearings – not just one or two. Worn bearings are not the end of the world but when ignored and driven into the ground, the bearings can collapse, and the cost of repairs can rise depending on the extent of damage.

We can repair your gearbox by replacing damaged components or offer a fully rebuilt gearbox. All reconditioned gearboxes come with our 2-year unlimited mileage warranty + free fitting at our gearbox service centre.

Common PF6 Renault Master + Renault Traffic Gearbox Faults

Gear Problems When Hot
Gear Problems When Cold

A new replacement gearbox will cost you upwards of £1300.00 VAT (excludes fitting) and will come with a limited 12-month warranty. Second-hand (used) gearboxes are generally a lot cheaper but also come with a limited 30-90-day warranty. You can never be sure of the history when purchasing used second-hand parts. It may have been removed from a front-accident damaged vehicle or a high-mileage vehicle which can reduce the life expectancy of the part.

Peugeot 206 1997-2007 Manual Gearbox Repairs + Rebuilds

Peugeot 206 Manual Gearbox Problems
The Peugeot 206 5-Speed manual gearbox is one of our top sellers in our reconditioned gearbox range. We particularly get a lot of enquiries for the 1.1L – 1.4L variants from 1997 – 2007. The most common failure we’ve seen with this type of gearbox is the front bearing failing and oil contamination on the clutch. This would cause clutch-slip and a slight noise on idle, which disappears when the clutch is depressed.

Common Peugeot 206 Gearbox Faults

Gears Crunching
Stuck In Gear
Not Going Into Gear
Jumping Out of Gear
Noisy Gearbox (Whining / Grinding)
Gear Problems When Hot
Gear Problems When Cold

Typically when a gearbox fails you’re often advised to replace it with a second-hand part because new gearboxes from dealers (although will come with a 12 month warranty) will be very expensive. Second-hand (used) gearboxes will only come with a limited 30-90 day warranty but will be much cheaper than a new part. The downside is you never know how well maintained the used gearbox was prior to it being removed from the vehicle – it may have come from a high-mileage car or a front-accident car which can affect it’s life expectancy.

Our Peugeot 206 Gearbox Repair Service
We offer Gearbox Repair + Rebuild services at very low cost affordable prices. When rebuilding a gearbox, we use new genuine OEM components to ensure that each and every rebuilt gearbox meets & exceeds OE specifications. All of our reconditioned gearboxes come with a 2 year unlimited mileage warranty and free fitting at our gearbox service centre.

If you have a Peugeot 206 with a manual gearbox fault, call us on 0203 815 9441.

Nissan Almera 1.5 Manual Gearbox Repairs + Rebuilds

Nissan Almera 1.5 Manual Gearbox Problems
Another common failing gearbox is fitted to the Nissan Almera 1.5l Petrol. It’s a 5-Speed manual gearbox and we’ve seen these coming in with many faults including input shaft bearings shot and crown wheel damage. When the Nissan Almera gearbox fails, we rebuild it using uprated parts (where possible) to strengthen the box.

Common Nissan Almera Gearbox Faults

Gears Crunching
Stuck In Gear
Not Going Into Gear
Jumping Out of Gear
Noisy Gearbox (Whining / Grinding)
Gear Problems When Hot
Gear Problems When Cold

Most garages and dealerships will advise on replacing the gearbox. If you manage to find a new replacement gearbox, it will be very expensive and with a limited 12 month warranty. A quick search will find you many second-hand (used) gearboxes available from breakers / scrap yards and will come with a limited 30-90 day warranty. These gearboxes are so weak and such common failures, don’t be surprised if after fitting a second-hand gearbox you find yourself back in the same situation not too far down the line. All Nissan Almera 1.5 gearboxes are failing – you run a higher risk buying from a high mileage or front accident damaged car.

Our Nissan Almera Gearbox Repairs
We offer a gearbox rebuild service where we fully strip & rebuild the unit with new components. We use genuine OEM components when rebuilding gearboxes and uprate components where possible to ensure each and every rebuilt gearbox meets & exceeds OE specifications. All of our reconditioned gearboxes come with a 2 Year unlimited mileage warranty and we offer free fittings at our Gearbox service centre.

Fiat Punto 5 Speed Manual Gearbox Repairs + Free Fitting

Fiat Punto 5 Speed Manual Gearbox Problems
One of the most common failing gearboxes we recondition is found fitted to the Fiat Punto. This common failing 5-Speed Manual Gearbox has many weak points, we see these boxes fail and come in with various problems including: Front Bearing Failure (Lay-Gear / Input shaft), Worn Out Gears and Gear Hubs, Pinion Bearing Failure, Crown Wheel Failure and so on.

We upgrade the components when rebuilding the Fiat Punto gearbox, some of which include an uprated roller bearing and a bolt-on crown wheel. Depending on how the gearbox has failed, you may experience various problems and if a gearbox fault is caught in the early stages, the repairs can be much cheaper.

Common Fiat Punto Gearbox Faults:

Stuck in Gear
Jumping Out of Gears
Crunching Gears (especially 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th)
Gears Not Going In (especially 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th)
Noisy Gearbox (whining / grinding noise)

Note: If the front bearing has failed, you may need to change your clutch due to oil contamination.

Commonly when your gearbox fails, most garages and dealerships will only advise on replacing the unit. A new replacement gearbox can work out to be very expensive and comes with a 12 month limited warranty. Used second-hand parts are a common choice for motorists because they are cheap – but they will also come with a limited 30-90 day warranty and being that these gearboxes are such common failures, you may end up developing a fault with the second gearbox.

Our Fiat Punto Gearbox Repair Service
We are able to fully strip & rebuild the Fiat Punto manual gearbox. When rebuilding the gearbox, we use new genuine OEM components and uprated parts where possible to ensure each and every rebuilt gearbox meets & exceeds OE specifications. All of our reconditioned gearboxes come with a 2 Year unlimited mileage warranty. We also offer free fitting at our gearbox service centre.

BMW Mini One / Cooper R50/53 Midland MA Gearbox Repairs

BMW Mini Gearbox Problems
The earlier BMW Mini (mk1) is notorious for it’s long list of common problems and includes the common failing 5-Speed manual gearbox. The BMW Mini Mk1 is fitted with a Midland box across all models including the Mini ONE and Cooper. This is possibly one of the most common gearboxes we see in our workshops.

The most common problem with these gearboxes is bearing failure and more often it’s either the pinion bearing or front bearing on the lay gear – you may notice a distinctive noise as they progress to wear out. If you do notice the problem in it’s early stages, the cost of repair is much cheaper than if you wait for the bearings to completely collapse.

Once the bearings collapse, it could as much as double the repair bill depending on the extent of damage it causes. We’ve seen gear-sets get chewed to bits and gearbox casings cracked – this type of damage is irreparable and new casings and gearsets can be very expensive.

Common BMW Mini Gearbox Faults

Noisy Gearbox (Crunching / Whining / Grinding Noise)
Not Going Into Gear (especially 2nd + 5th)
Stuck In Gear (commonly 2nd + 5th)
Loss of Power / Clutch Slipping

If the front bearing fails, your clutch may need replacing due to oil contamination.

Our BMW Mini Gearbox Rebuild + Free Fitting Service
We are able to fully strip & rebuild the BMW Mini gearbox. We use new genuine OEM components when repairing gearboxes to ensure each and every reconditioned gearbox meets & exceeds OE specifications. All of our rebuilt gearboxes come with a 2 year unlimited mileage warranty and free fitting in our gearbox service centre.

Reconditioned Gearboxes – Repairs & Rebuilds
Manual gearbox faults are very common and can become a problem on any vehicle. Some vehicles are known for their weak gearboxes such as the BMW Mini with the Midland Gearbox or the Fiat Punto 1.2l 5-Speed gearbox. Here at Sinspeed, we offer reconditioned gearboxes that can be supplied and fitted as an alternative yet more affordable solution to replacing your gearbox which as you know, can be very costly!

We have been rebuilding gearboxes in-house for over 30 years and have a team of 6 gearbox engineers with a combined experience of over 80 years. We recondition gearboxes for trade garages, dealerships and retail customers and have reconditioned all types of gearboxes, from the earlier 4-Gear (with/without overdrive), to more modern day gearboxes like the 5-Gear, 6-Gear and Semi-Automatic gearboxes. We even rebuild commercial gearboxes for vans and LGV’s.

When rebuilding your gearbox we don’t just change a few seals and send it back out. We perform an extensive 7-stage rebuild which includes two very thorough inspections before and after any repairs to confirm every reconditioned gearbox meets our stringent standards before leaving the workshop.

Common Gearbox Faults:

Not Going Into Gear
Stuck In Gear
Whining / Grinding / Crunching Noise
Loss Of Power
Jerking Between Gears
Won’t Go Into Reverse Gear
Gear Problems When Cold
Gear Problems When Hot

When your manual gearbox develops a fault, you may be advised to replace the gearbox instead of a repair. A main dealer for example would not offer a repair or rebuild service for your gearbox and a new replacement can be very expensive. If you’re looking at replacing your gearbox with a new part, you could be expected to pay upwards of £1200+ plus labour. New replacement gearboxes come with a limited 12 month warranty from dealers and a second-hand part will come with a limited 30-90 day warranty.

Replacing the gearbox for a used part is false economy. The second-hand gearbox would come with a limited warranty and if it has a known common fault, then you would be waiting for the second-hand box to fail as well just the same. The second-hand gearbox may have been removed from a high-mileage or front-accident vehicle and could fail sooner then you’d hope.

Sinspeed Gearbox Repair / Reconditioning Services
We offer an affordable and efficient gearbox repair and rebuild service. We use new genuine OEM components when rebuilding gearboxes to ensure that each and every rebuilt gearbox meets and exceeds OE specifications. All of our reconditioned gearboxes come with a 2 year (unlimited mileage) warranty and free professional fitting at our workshop.

Our typical turnaround time for a gearbox repair is 24-hours and we also offer same-day rebuild services for some manual gearboxes if required. If you think you have a gearbox fault but you’re not 100% sure, we do offer diagnostic services for both trade and retail customers.
