Mercedes W113 Gearbox RebuildsFrancis Robertson-Marriott2023-01-10T17:08:27+00:00

MERCEDES W113 GEARBOX REFURBISHMENT

The transmissions offered with the Mercedes Pagoda are especially reliable when configured correctly. Those that have lacked the care they need may be tired and troublesome now. However, that doesn’t mean that you should give up. Our in house gearbox specialists carried out their apprenticeships when these transmissions were still in production by Mercedes-Benz, making them some of the most qualified individuals still able to restore and repair your Pagoda’s gearbox.

Our carefully configured gearbox rebuild programs are focused on allowing you to drive more with confidence, maintaining and if not, increasing the value of your Pagoda later down the line. After all, a classic car deserves to be enjoyed.

”Amazing place, the guys are so passionate not just about their cars but also their growing ” family “of customers. Looking forward to collecting my new Pagoda.”

Peter Domb

WHAT MAKES OUR SERVICE UNIQUE?

  1. We listen to you and work with you to understand the problems you have experienced
  2. Our collective experience allows us to use the right tools and timeline to get the job done
  3. Before removing the transmission, we check external dynamics to save you hours in labour costs
  4. Our on site parts department allows us to quickly access replacement components
  5. We make improvements that will better the performance and longevity of your gearbox
  6. A strict reinstallation process and final test drives ensures your transmission works better than new

WHY DO I NEED IT?

Rebuilding your gearbox is a trusted way to secure you a long-term return on your investment, while also safeguarding your classic car enjoyment while the vehicle is in your custody. While your kick down is dysfunctional or your gears are sticking, you’ll feel disillusioned with your ownership experience. With a restored gearbox, you’ll enjoy a reliable, safe and enjoyable driving experience that will only install envy in other Pagoda owners.

HOW DO WE DO IT?

Following a comprehensive assessment of your transmission, we will strip, clean and check all mechanical components for wear and serviceability against factory criteria. We then set all operating clearances to factory specifications, before replacing all the seals and gaskets with genuine Mercedes-Benz parts.
