Gearbox & Transmission Repairs in Hebburn, Tyne and Wear

Whining, jumping out of gear or slow automatic shifts? Banks Of The Tyne Motor Company in Hebburn diagnoses and repairs manual and automatic gearboxes, transmissions and differentials.

Gearbox, Transmission & Diff Repairs

Your gearbox, transmission and differential carry the engine's power to the wheels. They're built to last, but worn bearings, low or old oil and hard use eventually take their toll. Catching problems early can mean a simple repair rather than a replacement gearbox.

Our Hebburn technicians road-test your vehicle, scan for transmission fault codes and inspect for leaks to pinpoint the problem. We'll explain your options clearly, from an oil service to bearing replacement or a reconditioned unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does automatic transmission fluid need changing?

Many manufacturers describe it as 'lifetime' fluid, but fresh fluid at sensible intervals can help prevent costly problems, particularly on higher-mileage cars. We'll advise based on your car and mileage.

What does a whining noise from the back of the car mean?

On rear-wheel or four-wheel-drive vehicles, a whine that rises with speed often points to a worn differential bearing or low diff oil. It's worth checking early.

Can you fit a reconditioned gearbox?

Yes. Where a repair isn't economical we can source and fit a quality reconditioned unit.
