Gearbox needed
Hello all,
I hope someone out there can help me out. My 2002 S8's gearbox has died, forward clutch drum has failed. Does any one have or know of a FBG gearbox for sale? Thanks in advance Robert |

ZF transmission failure has been well documented. The only advice I would give here, is to get your tranny rebuilt. The amount of labor involved in removing yours, sourcing a used unit and installing, then doing a precautionary service (oil, filter, gasket etc) makes it a risky venture. There's no way of telling how long a used tranny would last.

Check out Mackies in Glasgow (ZF service facility), or call a4audi for a refurb box price.

Hi
Thanks for the replys, i have been to Mackies and quoted me 4200 including VAT pounds to rebuild it,Ouch. Chester Auto transmissions was 3100 including VAT. I will give A4Audi a ring and see how much they charge. Regards Robert Last edited by cosworth330; 5th December 2011 at 05:08 PM. |

At 4200 bucks, I'd buy another FL S8, part out the bust one, and be in profit. 4200? FFS!
