As the title suggests, I'm after a decent shop to open my P.O.S BA T5 manual and replace the bit that has just gone boom. I've had it quickly checked out and it certainly looks like the output shaft as a bruised fin. (Its giving revolution resistance at the same point in the tailshafts rotation and giving slight tactile feedback back through to the gearstick) I'm new to this side of town and hoping someone can recommend a reliable and fairly priced bloke!
Might even just be cheaper to drop a new box in... $880 seems like the cost for a reco T5. Thoughts? - Much appreciated. Edit: - I'm in the Oakleigh area of Melbourne |

on closer inspection it looks like I've blown a diff gear (s) the diff is leaking like a siv. Hope it didn't take the tranny with it....
