If I was that close to unit 20 that's exactly what I would do. Or drive it there if you think you'll make it.

Isn't that about the price of an exchange box from ZF?

Grizz will organise a complete overhaul with a 12M warranty for less than that. I know which I'd prefer...

Like I said nothing to do with me just thought it might help.

I thought a new one was closer to £8000.00 fitted.............

Thinking about it £8000.00 was what I remember seeing if a dealership do it.

I think and if the box is £2960.00 + Vat then 2- 3 Days labour and various bit and pieces its not too far off.

I would say Grizz is the man for the job if you're in Leeds.
