Am I able to get the reverse gear replaced without buying a new or secondhand gearbox.

Hi Andrew you have a gear selector fault inside the gearbox your options are to replace the box with a secondhand box. Otherwise find a reputable shop that can rebuild your own. Regards Jim...

Sure you can replace just the gear. But the labor to disassemble and rebuild will probably be more than a used gearbox

buy new or second hand gearbox.this one is too expensive to repair

hi mate , sounds like the SPIGOT bearing its a little bearing that allows the gearbox to be at a different seed than the engine flywheel and if this is in bad condition it will take the gearbox front shaft to a higher speed than comfortable for gearshift , in the meantime when you go for 1st or reverse gear just engage a gear like 4th without taking your foot off the clutch and then go for 1st or reverse, this will stop the gearbox spining long enough for a smooth shif, oNLY USE THIS METHOD WHILE STaTIONARY and see a professional when you get time.

you need to have the gear linkage adjusted, using a dealer tool.you should be able to engage all gears when engine is off.

hi changing fluid and filters sometimes cures problemiif not its probably reverse gear solenoid in gearbox .get a decent secondhand box if fluid change doesnt help.

Your reverse band is gone, any gearbox specialist can do this but cost about £500-£600, Good luck

It sounds to me like the clutch is not working properly.
This may be an adjustment problem or signs of a worn clutch.
Try selecting 5th gear and with the handbrake on let out the clutch, if the engine stalls then the clutch is probably ok and may just need adjusted. If the engine doesn't stall then your clutch is shot and unfortunately its gearbox back out to fit a new clutch.

My S-Type gearbox has given up the ghost. First there was a delay when setting off before car would move, then a whining noise started in gearbox and today in tries to stay in 2nd gear if I put my foot down there is no transmission. Then the gearbox fault light came on. Is it worth repairng and if not what will an new gearbox cost including fitting. I have sourced a secondhand box so how much time is needed to do a swap? thanks

its can be both modulator valve or signs of a transmission going bad.
