sportyone 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) Mr Smaky, What sort of things need to to be done with the Alfa sele gearboxes to keep them going well for longer then ? so would a secondhand box be some advantage if it came from a wreck with rear collision damage ? the one I got an unmarked sensor out of ? surely the Alfa gearboxes should last like most other car gearboxes, a reasonable time unless Alfa's have another design flaw ? ? cheers Edited April 25, 2015 by sportyone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smaky 73 Report post Posted April 26, 2015 Repairing the box with a front bearing failure is hit or miss, as when the bearing originally seized it will have spun the casing, wearing it away which is what allows the shaft oscilate and cause all the damage, so if you can it is better to replace the box with a good unit which has been inspected inside for wear or damage before you fit it.
