Driving in Cheltenham and what it does to your gearbox
Cheltenham driving is a mix of town traffic through Charlton Kings, Leckhampton and Prestbury and longer runs on the A40 and M5. Premium cars with ZF eight-speed and Mercedes 7G and 9G-Tronic gearboxes are a common sight here, alongside DSG and S tronic dual-clutch units. Climbing out of town towards Cleeve Hill and Leckhampton Hill also puts extra load on a gearbox, which can expose slipping or overheating faults.
Whether you need a quick fix or a full rebuild, our transmission specialists serving Cheltenham diagnose the fault properly first, then explain the options and the cost before any work starts. If you've been searching for gearbox repair near me in Cheltenham, you don't need to find a local gearbox garage: we collect your car and bring it to our specialist centre.

Gearbox repairs in Cheltenham: diagnose, repair, recondition or replace
A replacement gearbox isn't always the answer. After diagnosis we'll recommend the option that makes sense for your car and explain the cost of each. Read more about our automatic gearbox repair service.
Gearbox diagnostics
Fault-code reading, road testing and inspection to find the real cause of the problem, not just the symptom.
Gearbox repair
Fix the failed part, such as a mechatronic unit, valve body, solenoid or torque converter. Usually the lowest-cost option.
Gearbox reconditioning
Your gearbox stripped, cleaned and rebuilt with new parts where they're needed, so you keep the original unit.
Gearbox replacement
A reconditioned or replacement gearbox supplied and fitted when a repair isn't economical. We'll only recommend this when it's the right call.
