What we’ve sorted recently
Gearbox replacement — 2013 Vauxhall Astra
Ever wonder why some jobs take longer than others? This 2013 Vauxhall Astra needed a full gearbox replacement. To get the box out, the subframe has to come down — which means supporting the engine and disconnecting steering components first. It's a proper puzzle and not a quick one, but that's exactly what it takes to get the Astra shifting smoothly again: subframe out and inspected, gearbox replaced, then a full safety re-check before it moves an inch.
Drive shaft replacement — VW T-Roc
This VW T-Roc was in the workshop recently for a drive shaft replacement. A worn drive shaft tends to announce itself with clicking on full lock or vibration through the car, and left long enough it can leave you stranded, so it's not one to put off. We took the faulty shaft out, checked over the surrounding suspension while we had access, and fitted a quality replacement to get clean power back to the wheels. Back to driving as it should and ready for the road.
