Conventional automatics
Planetary gear sets and torque converters from 3-speed classics to modern 8, 9 and 10-speed units.
Service · Transmission Repair
Repair, rebuild, restored.
Whether the gearbox is slipping, shifting late, leaking, or simply not what it used to be — we strip it, diagnose it, and put it right. A properly rebuilt transmission can outlast the original; that’s the standard we work to.
What we mean by repair
Three decades of experience, applied one transmission at a time.
A modern automatic transmission is one of the most complicated components in any car — a system of hydraulics, planetary gearsets and computer-controlled solenoids working in tight tolerance with each other. When something goes wrong, the symptoms (a slip, a flare, a harsh shift) rarely point to a single cause.
Our work begins with diagnosis, not disassembly. We confirm what’s actually failing before any part is ordered or any case is split. Once we know, you get a clear written quote — whether the right answer is a service, a partial repair, or a full rebuild.
What we work on
Every transmission type. Every make on the road.
Sedans, SUVs, 4WDs, family cars, fleet vehicles and performance builds — if it has an automatic gearbox, we’ve almost certainly seen one before.
CVT systems
Belt and chain-driven continuously variable transmissions — properly diagnosed, properly rebuilt.
Dual-clutch units
DCT and DSG gearboxes from European and Japanese manufacturers, including mechatronic and clutch-pack work.
Transaxles & FWD
Front-wheel-drive units that combine transmission and final drive in a single case — dismantled, repaired and resealed cleanly.
4WD & SUV gearboxes
Heavy-duty rebuilds for off-roaders and SUVs that work for a living — suited to hot-climate, dust and load conditions.
Performance & fleet
Reinforced builds for high-output engines, plus consistent fleet-spec rebuilds for taxis, vans and commercial vehicles.
Built for UAE conditions
A gearbox here works harder than the manual ever planned for.
Heat, stop-start traffic, sand, heavy loads and long highway runs at speed — manufacturers call this “severe duty,” and most cars in the Emirates spend their lives in it. We build with that in mind.
-
Auxiliary cooling on request
External transmission coolers and upgraded lines for vehicles that tow, haul or sit in summer traffic.
-
Valve body upgrades
Where it makes sense — valve body kits and updated solenoid packs to fix shifting issues at the source.
-
Heat-tolerant builds
Upgraded clutch friction materials and seal compounds rated for sustained high-temperature operation.
-
Updated component designs
Where the manufacturer has revised a part to address a known weakness, that revision goes into your rebuild — not the original.
The repair process
From rough shift to road-ready, in four clear stages.
Most diagnoses are done the same day. Rebuild times depend on parts and complexity, but you’ll have a realistic timeline before any work begins.
Diagnose
Stationary check, road test under load, full electronic scan and live-data review. We confirm what’s actually wrong before quoting a single part.
Quote
A clear written estimate covering parts, labour and timeline. You decide before any work begins — and if the right answer is a service rather than a rebuild, we’ll say so.
Rebuild
Removal, dismantle, clean, inspect, machine where needed, reassemble with OEM and updated parts. Each build is documented, with torque values and replaced components on paper.
Test & deliver
Final road test under load, electronic verification, and our written workshop warranty handed over with the keys. You drive away with peace of mind.
Every repair includes
No surprises — what you get, every time.
- Free initial diagnosis Stationary, road and electronic. No charge if no work is needed.
- Written, plain-language quote Parts and labour itemised before approval. No surprise additions.
- OEM & updated parts Manufacturer-spec components, with revised parts where they exist.
- Workshop-backed warranty Written warranty on parts and labour, handed over on collection.
- Final road test Verified under load and at temperature before handover.
- One point of contact Same technician from diagnosis to delivery — no relayed messages.
Free diagnosis
Bring it in. We’ll tell you what it actually needs.
Same-day diagnosis on most vehicles, with a written quote in plain language. If a service is enough, that’s what we’ll quote — we don’t sell rebuilds you don’t need.
