Really helpful and friendly staff. Very knowledgeable regarding all things gearbox/transmission.

After what was first thought to be a clutch issue with my VW T5, it was later discovered that it was going to be a change of gearbox.
I was recommended Get-Gear Transmissions by T5 Spares and various other people, so didn't hesitate to contact them.
Although, Get-Gear are over 2 hours away from me and I could have got a gearbox in my next town, recommendation goes a long way.
From the first point of contact with Gary, I felt I was in good hands. He obviously knows his stuff and couldn't have been more helpful. He had one on the shelf. I was given the option of exchanging the gearbox by courier or taking my gearbox to Gary myself. I chose to take it there myself, just to be sure I was getting what I paid for! Gary reserved the box he had for me, as I couldn't get there for over a week.
I couldn't have been happier with the service I received on arriving.
It was a simple case of Gary checking my original gearbox, just to make sure the casing wasn't cracked and it could be reconditioned for a future customer. Whilst Gary was doing this, he talked me through all the components and seals that where replaced, the fifth gear upgrade and the full cleaning process that takes place in the reconditioning of the gearboxes by him.
Gary then lifted a shiny, almost new looking gearbox into my boot, after the small matter of payment, which is very competitive, considering the work that has gone into it by Gary. Within half an hour, I was on my way back to my garage, to have the gearbox fitted. My garage were very happy too, as Gary had left all the fitting brackets on the box, so it was just a simple case of bolting it on.
It's been in the campervan just over a month now and I am delighted with it. It's as tight, smooth and quiet as a new box and the van is a pleasure to drive again, with the fifth gear upgrade. I also have peace of mind knowing the gearbox is under a good warranty, which was sent to me by email, along with my electronic receipt, the following day.
I can't recommend Get-Gear Transmissions enough and I hope Gary is trading for many years to come, as I'll definitely be using him again, if the need ever arises and also recommending him to anyone I can.

Recently got a recon gearbox for my T5 from Get Gear. Now runs like dream, with the fifth gear upgrade definitely making a difference.
Found Gary to be a totally genuine guy who obviously knows his stuff & takes pride in his work.
Top company.
Would not hesitate to recommend.

I spoke with Gary who couldn’t of been more helpful whilst advising me on a gear box issue. He didn’t try to get me to have any work done either he was just more than happy to offer his sound advice which was greatly appreciated. Clearly a very genuine individual. Definitely a place to consider if experiencing gear box issues.

Great service from Gary and Claire at get gear transmissions. My new VW T5 gearbox is sweet as a nut. Full refund given on surcharge for my old gearbox. Gary is very trustworthy and knowledgeable and provides all the advice you will need. I can’t recommend them highly enough. 5 stars all the way.

Excellent service from the first phone call to driving away with a recon gearbox. The service from Gary and Claire couldn’t be faulted. Our T5 is completely transformed.

A first rate service and excellent communication and support. Would definitely recommend using get-gear transmissions. Did a lot of research before using them and they didn’t let us down. Thank you Gary and Claire

Knows his job

I have just used Get Gear Transmissions for a refurbished box for my van, cannot rate them highly enough, plenty of info right through the process and a special thanks to Gary for extending my returns period. First class service all round 😀

Get-Gear Transmissions provided a reconditioned gearbox for my VW T5 camper van, was installed at a professional garage now back on the road ready for more adventures. Very happy with their service. Quick response, easy to deal with and very nice people.

Hi, Drove up from Cornwall to meet Gary and see he’s business, wow very impressive, someone who has vast knowledge and experience, seeing how he works I’ll be using him again soon, thanks again Gary for my perfect gearbox.

I had the misfortune to need a new gearbox earlier this month. After a lot of ringing around and not being able to find the one I needed. I contacted Gary & Claire at Get-Gear Transmissions Ltd where they had one fully reconditioned on the shelf ready to go. The next day I drove 340 miles round trip to exchange my bad box for an amazing freshly reconditioned box. Gary went above and beyond and opening up his business aspecially to get me back on the road considering that he had a lot of important things to sort out at home.. also gave me some cash back towards my fuel costs having had a long journey. I would recommend contacting Gary and Claire at Get-Gear Transmissions Ltd.
The best service I have had in many years.

Excellent service - quick delivery and easy return of old gearbox for refund of deposit. Good quality refurbishment and really friendly and efficient - no problems at all thank you!

Reconditioned gearbox for VW T5 1.9.
Highly recommended independent specialist.
Amazing communication, time spent explaining finer details and extremely knowledgeable.

Fantastic service, Gary was extremely helpful, a really well ran business 👍

I managed to lose 5th and 6th gears on my VW T5 transporter the week before I’d planned to go away in the van. Gary was recommended by T5 spares. Contacted Gary who managed to squeeze us in, took my gearbox out and took it to Gary who stripped it infront of me to highlight why it had failed, discussed options (could have easily spent more and bought replacement off the shelf but Gary convinced me the majority of the gearbox was good condition and a rebuild with couple new parts was needed). Gearbox rebuilt the next day and I was kept up to date on progress. A few days after I got the gearbox back in the van Gary called to check everything was ok and we managed to still get away. Exceptional customer service - Get gear transmissions is the only place I trust with gearboxes now. Thanks again.

I’d like to thank get gear transmissions Ltd for an exellent easy service supplying and having gearbox fitted with new clutch and flywheel local to me.
Nice easy and effective customer service with peace of mind. Vans back on the road and with 12 months warranty. Would definitely recommend

Spot on service, very professional from start to finish. Was kept
informed at every stage. Very happy customer. Many thanks.
