Gearbox diagnostics, servicing and repair

UK Motor Centre Ltd handles manual, automatic, DSG/DCT and CVT gearboxes. We start with proper diagnostics (live data, pressure tests, road test), then advise on the most cost-effective fix — from fluid exchange and software adaptations to mechatronics or clutch/DMF replacement. Transparent quotes, OE-spec fluids and warranty-backed parts.

Common symptoms

  • Slipping, flare or harsh/jerky changes
  • Delay into drive/reverse, PRNDS flashing
  • Whining, buzzing or clonks under load
  • Vibration, shudder or judder (e.g., DSG/CVT)
  • Leaks or burning smell from ATF

Don’t keep driving on a slipping gearbox — it can multiply the repair bill.

Transmission FAQs

Which transmissions do you work on?
Manual, automatic torque-converter, DSG/DCT (wet & dry clutch), CVT and automated manuals. We diagnose, service and repair most makes.
Do you do transmission fluid changes & flushes?
Yes. We use machine-assisted fluid exchange with the correct spec ATF/gear oil and reset/adaptations where the manufacturer requires it.
Signs my gearbox needs attention?
Jerky or slipping shifts, delayed engagement, whining/buzzing, vibrations, leaks, burning smell, PRNDS flashing, or fault codes.
Can you repair mechatronics/valve bodies?
We test electrically and hydraulically and can repair or replace valve bodies/mechatronics and perform coding/adaptations.
Will a service fix my issue?
A fluid service often improves shift quality and longevity, but mechanical faults (clutches/bands, bearings, solenoids) may need repair or replacement.
