Renault UN1 Manual Gearbox

Hi,

I am putting the feelers out for a manual gear box for my car vin1780.

The car is currently sitting in my garage in a sorry state with ATF leaking out all over the place, the last time it was out the autobox decided to rev erratically and refused to change gear from 2nd to 3rd. I have asked some local gearbox specialists if they would be interested in repairing my autobox but they have said no. So I am looking at doing a manual conversion.

If anyone has one for sale at a reasonable price please pm me.

Many thanks

David

That's bad news mate.

I have a secondhand autobox untested, which I could price up to be sent to you....I have no reason to suspect it doesn't work...maybe they could make one out of two if it doesn't?

I do have another autobox only been used a couple of times round the test track, then was removed from the car, but don't really want to part with it.

It could be the auto computer/solenoids.

I'm sure someone will take the auto off your hands. If you're getting rid of the auto (and I Love the autos) could I have your old auto computer to see if I can make a good one out of old parts?

Good luck with the conversion

Gents apologies for only replying, I managed to get sorted out with another Autobox. It takes the hassle out doing the conversion, plan is to keep my knackered box and use it as a source for spares if required. I shall also upgrade the governor at the same time with Ed so need to send the old core to him.

Thanks for your offers of help greatly appreciated.
