Gearbox rebuild. Recommendation

Post by robin993 » Mon Jul 20, 2020 2:34 pm

I am looking for a recommendation for a Shop to rebuild a friends 2001 RS4 gearbox. He took it to a local Indy to have a whine seen to. They removed the gearbox and sent it to their transmission specialist. When the box was refitted he couldn’t get 2 of the gears. The garage are refunding him, but the car is not working. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good Shop to put things right again please. We are based in the south east, but willing to travel to find a company that knows these cars.

No where near your location I’m afraid but @jockthedog (Doug Grant) is your man. He’s based just south of Edinburgh.

Very good reputation on the AudiSRS forums and Facebook.

He’s done 1 gearbox and 2 diffs for me.

If you want his details, just PM me.

Hi All. I have just spoken to Doug. He is super, so pleased to have found him, love this forum, it has made me start to think of getting another RS. I miss my V10 and my V8 maybe time for a V6.
