Information Hi all, first post and help needed

Hi there

Sorry to join and my first post be a cry for help but I'm up the creak without a paddle on this one and I don't know where else to turn on it.

I have a 2001 A2 and the gearbox is kaput. My local mechanic has said I need an EWQ gearbox. It's a diesel if that makes a difference.

Does anyone know where I can get one on a budget.

Thank you

Sam

HI,

I asked for the same thing a couple of weeks ago and a kind member on here had one for a very fair price, so you might be lucky to find one on here.

EBay is another option but there are some people that sell poor quality items and a gearbox is something that you need to be right.

Post a thread in the wanted section on here just in case anyone is browsing that section.

Is it definitely not repairable? That might work out cheaper, or be an alternative if you can't find one.

By the way the EWQ is only fitted to the Diesel A2s, so don't be tempted by one with a different code.

Good luck with the search.

Thanks Birchall

Sam is short for Samantha not Samual :cool:

I have tried to post a wanted ad but for some reason it won't let me.

Not really looking to upgrade, just want my beloved car back on the road.

Hi Samantha !!!

Sorry about that.

Ah yes, the marketplace is only open to those that make the minimum donation of £10, sorry about that.

Have a look through the threads that indicate that they are breaking an A2 on here, there are a couple, see if they have the diesel gearbox you need.

But as I say, what is the problem with yours? Is it definitely unrepairable???

Hi Sam, Welcome.

Your username just makes me sad I don't have time to play Arkham Knight...but one day :)

I don't know your budget but here's one, London, but can deliver to your mechanic http://www.bluechipspares.co.uk/product.php?id_product=1963

Hi,

Well found, but don't expect any customer service from that company, several members on here have been more than disappointed by their attitude when you ask questions,
It is a tad on the expensive side but cheaper than a recon unit, so if it is in your budget then it could work for you.
