Hi,
I need to get my C2 gearbox rebuilt as I am fed up with the crunch into second gear when cold and the slack and clunking in the overall drive train on when on and off the power. I have worn drive shafts too, but with the car jacked up the excessive play is visible when you manually turn the rear wheels slowly clockwise then anti-clockwise to take up the slack when in first gear. It extends into the gearbox much more than I think is normal and is not just due to the worn CV joints.
The car has done over 170K with no history of a rebuild, so its probably about time.
I will get my local garage to remove the box and I would like to know if you have any recommendations for where to get it overhauled & rebuilt?
My closest Porsche specialists are JMG Porsche in Bornemouth and Canford Classics, but would like at least 4 to contact.
Any suggestions?
