Is a gearbox replacement expensive?
Typically, a gearbox replacement costs between £600 and £2,800. The gearbox is one of the most important parts of any vehicle, transferring power from the engine to the wheels. Many cars use a simple 5 or 6-speed manual gearbox, while newer or luxury models often have automatic gearboxes with up to 8 gears. On average, costs can run from $1200 for minor repairs to upwards of $3500 for a complete rebuild. Replacement costs are similar but sometimes fall lower depending on the make and model of your vehicle. The larger the vehicle, the more expensive the transmission will be.
