Transmission overhaul in Riyadh
Transmission overhaul — carried out in our Riyadh workshop with marque-specific equipment

A gearbox rebuild demands operating-theatre cleanliness and precisely specified parts. A single leftover metal particle can lodge in a valve and undo the whole job. So we separate stripping and washing from assembly, and replace every wearing item instead of reusing it.

Once a gearbox is damaged internally, a fluid change will not help. We remove it, inspect and photograph the internals, then agree what gets replaced before rebuilding.

A gearbox rebuild demands operating-theatre cleanliness and precisely specified parts. A single leftover metal particle can lodge in a valve and undo the whole job. So we separate stripping and washing from assembly, and replace every wearing item instead of reusing it.

01

Diagnosis before the decision to strip

Before rebuilding we rule out simpler causes: fluid level and condition, internal mechatronic leakage, drifted adaptation values, or a sensor fault. We measure line pressures, log data on a road test, and analyse what sticks to the pan magnets — the type of debris itself indicates which component is wearing. Many cases are solved without a full strip, and we tell you plainly when that is the case.

02

Stripping, washing and replacing wear items

The unit is fully stripped, parts washed and checked visually and by measurement: clutch packs, seals, pistons, bearings and valve body spools. The complete gasket and seal set is replaced, the valve body cleaned or replaced by condition, and the torque converter inspected and replaced when needed — refitting a tired converter to a rebuilt gearbox brings the problem straight back.

03

Assembly and post-fit adaptation

Assembly follows specified torques and measured clearances, then the unit is filled with the correct fluid at the right temperature. After fitting we reset adaptation values and run the on-road learning procedure until shift points settle, then re-read pressures and temperatures to confirm. The car is handed over after a real road test, not just an idle run in the bay.

Signs that lead to an overhaul

We try the lighter fixes first and only strip the unit when tests demand it.

  • 01Slipping gears
  • 02Harsh shift shock
  • 03Loss of drive when hot
  • 04Metal debris in the fluid

What the service includes

  • Removal and internal inspection
  • Clutch pack and seal kit replacement
  • Torque converter repair or replacement
  • Programming, adaptation reset and road test

Requests we get for this service

If your case is close to one of these descriptions, send it as is on WhatsApp and we will understand it immediately.

  • Automatic gearbox rebuild for a European car
  • Slipping or loss of drive in the transmission
  • Mechatronic repair and clutch pack replacement
  • Metal debris in the gearbox pan
  • Torque converter replacement with the rebuild

Advice from the workshop floor

Practical notes learned from cars that came through the workshop, useful even if you never visit us.

  • 1Do not keep driving with obvious slip; heat damages the rest of the unit.
  • 2Ask whether the torque converter is included in the quote.
  • 3After a rebuild, keep to the early first fluid change we recommend.

The gearbox overhaul steps

  1. 01

    Vehicle intake

    We record the symptoms, history and vehicle data.

  2. 02

    Inspection

    We measure and test before suggesting parts.

  3. 03

    Report and approval

    We explain the cause and work before starting.

  4. 04

    Work and documentation

    A specialist carries out and documents the work.

  5. 05

    Handover test

    Final checks and a road test where needed.

What reassures you before handing over your car

Clear written commitments from diagnosis to handover.

  • Warranty on completed work

    The warranty scope is stated on the invoice; if the same symptom returns during it, the car is checked without a new diagnostic fee.

  • Nothing starts without approval

    You receive the fault, parts and labour report before dismantling or replacement begins.

  • Your old parts are returned

    Replaced parts remain available until collection and are shown to you clearly.

  • A written record of every visit

    Inspection readings, work, date and mileage are recorded so the next visit is faster and more accurate.

Gearbox overhaul questions

Does the car need programming after a rebuild?+

Yes — module programming and adaptation reset are needed for smooth operation after repair.

Can only part of the gearbox be repaired?+

Yes in some cases — mechatronics or a specific clutch pack — and internal inspection after teardown decides that.

Does the gearbox need coding afterwards?+

Yes — resetting adaptation values is necessary after internal work so shifts stay smooth and matched to the new condition.
