Nissan Micra CVT Automatic that came in to us that wasn't driving properly.
Once we put it up on the ramp it was pretty obvious it was leaking transmission fluid. There is an oil cooler in front of the radiator that had corroded.
Hopefully now its no longer leaking and the fluid level is correct it wont have damaged any transmission internal components.

Audi A3 DSG clutch failure, it would bang into 1st gear and reverse gear and stall the engine. Eventually it would go into limp mode and only drive in 2nd, 4th and 6th gears with no reverse.

Hyundai i10 input and driveshaft seal replacement.

The only problem is the input shaft seal is replaced from the inside, meaning that the gearbox needs to be stripped to replace it.

On the other ramp we have another Ford Fiesta with 6 speed manual gearbox problems.

On the ramp today we have a transit with an automatic gearbox. The customer was told he needed a new gearbox but on inspection it was the driveshafts that were the issue, two driveshafts are certainly a lot cheaper and easier to replace than a new automatic gearbox.

Grass cutting on Sunday afternoon. I just thought I would put some pics from when we moved in to remind myself what it used to look like. I don't know anything about lawn care but I am quite pleased with how its starting to look now with the odd mow and pulling the weeds out now and then.

On the ramp today we have a Ford Ranger with the 6R80E automatic transmission, this is slipping in gears as it had been driven with low oil level and damaged the clutch frictions.
