HELP ! How Much Does A Gearbox Replacement Cost?

[ammarzebkn]

Hi Pakwheelers,

I have a Suzuki Cervo 2007 (Turbo Edition). I bought this car last year in Sept/Oct. Overall, I love the car, though it is a 660 cc car but its turbo doesn't let you feel any lag or lack of power.

Unfortunately, today I have faced an issue. I was on motorway and I felt a little lag in power or what we say pick. The car's pick is not as it was before, moreover, the car was not going above 90 km/h while I have driven it on full meter, 140 km/h before and very easily.

When I gave full foot, the car was gaining speed but too slowly while the RPM and engine sound was going loud as it does on full foot.

I have checked it from a mechanic and he said that the gearbox and clutch plates are worn out and will need replacement.

I have also got it checked from another mechanic and he said that the turbo needs cleaning.

I don't have a lot of experience so please give me your feedback about what could be the real issue? & in worst case scenario, if I have to replace the gearbox and clutch plates, what would be the estimated cost?

-Thanks

Bro first ensure following:

Are spark plugs clean?
Has throttle body been serviced and engine tuned in recent times?
Is Catalytic Converter Ok?
Is transmission oil, engine oil in excellent condition?
Are Air Filter and Oil Filter clean?

I do not know what's turbo cleaning, so can't comment regarding it.

I am not sure, but Mujhay zyada issue Catalytic Converter ka lagg raha hai. It might have been badly clogged. Get it checked first, before going for anything else.

What's the odo reading of your vehicle?
Is there any check light?

Must inspect Catalytic Converter before any investment

Experts with AT / CVT can comment and judge better, but personally, Mujhay ye transmission failure nai lagg raha. The issue is something else.

I also dont think it is Transmission issue. It is something else. First of all inspect your cat then go for tuning other components as suggested above

Hi Basit, following are answers for what you asked.

-Spark plugs changed recently, last month.
-Throttle body was serviced in I think January of this year.
-Catalytic converter cleaned recently.
-Engine oil changed according to time, Transmission oil not changed since I bought the car.
-Air filter/Oil filter replaced on regular intervals.
-No check lights, everything good.
-Reading on oddo is around 120k. I bought the car at around 75k.

Also, the engine is giving a certain 'zoooooooon' noise when pressing the accelerator.

OK Bro, I get it. It means that basic checks are almost OK.

The only viable solution seems to me is to visit 02-03 good mechanics / garages, who are expert with engines / transmissions. Address them all of your queries, and ask them if there is any problem with transmission / engine, how could they be 100-110% sure about it, that the problem lies with engine / transmission, and it will be 100% gone after doing necessary work?

Take at least, 02-03 different opinions and when you and mechanics are sure regarding the problem(s), take remedial measures accordingly.

Transmissions, specially Japanese and AT / CVT; jaldi kiay kharab hoti nai hain, yahan takk k kisi ney bohat abuse / misuse kia ho!

[ammarzebkn]

Ok, thanks for the suggestion bhai. I will definitely go to a couple of mechanics and take their opinions.

Kharab honi to nahe chahye, boht pyar se rakhe hai gari.

[anon35615524]

You are Welcome Bro

Yes. You should visit some good mechanics. Do share the conclusions and results here.

Agar car, care k sath rakhi ho then waqai dukh hota hai.

[ammarzebkn]

Is ka kuch rough estimate de skte hen? How much would it cost to repair? Happened on Fri in Pindi.

[anon35615524]

ALLAH Pa'ak Reham Karein. Sorry to learn about the tragedy. Ye to kafi dukh ki baat hui hai.

How did it happen? Is everyone safe and all right?

Bro main aapko estimate to nai de sakta, since jo b denter / painter ho ga, wo puri inspection k ba'ad hi kuj btaa sakay ga. But Yes, I can refer you to a good denter:

Siddique Denter (Bhola), at Aurangzeb CNG Station, ALLAH Wali Market (National Market), Satellite Town, Rawalpindi.

Meri Passo car, aik Prius walay ney back side sey hit kar di thi. Mainay issi denter sey ka'am karwaya tha, on recommendation from one of my friends, and I was highly satisfied. Rate b bohat munasib tha.

I would suggest k aap issi k paas chalay jyein. Wo kaam b acha suthra karay ga aur charge b munasib karay ga. I.A.

Once again, sad to learn about your loss. But Yes, ALLAH Pa'ak Sehat, aur Khaer O Aafiat k sath Rakhein. Iss sey barh k kuj nai!

[brownrose78]

Good denting krao. Bohat bad accident hoa hay.Allah rehem farmaye

[ammarzebkn]

Bhai kam is almost done. Ab issue ye aya hua hai aj meri gari ka kam almost done hogya tha. I started the car, I put it into reverse and drive, but the car was not moving. Than the mechanics did something and the gear was stuck in Drive, wo us k sath lagai rahai almost 25 minutes aur us k bad gear box khol dia to Cable tooti hui the. Do you think the car was not moving and the gear was stuck because of broken cable or what? Because cable almost 5000 ke hai and I need to be sure k ye pehle se tooti the aur in ke cher khani se nahe tooti aur masla isi ka hai.

Thanks.

[anon35615524]

Bro, to be honest, I am not expert with transmissions.
Main aapko yei suggest karo'on ga k aap kisi achay transmissions expert mechanic ko check karwayein, And ye woi btaa sakta hai k cable pehlay sey tuuti hui thi, ya iss dheenga mushti mein tuuti hai?

[ammarzebkn]

I have got it checked from a transmission expert and he said that gear change krna pre ga it is gone. He is saying it would cost 8-9k but I highly doubt that. Japanese k gear to costly hoga.

[anon35615524]

Nope. You need not doubt it.
You may be surprised to know that Mehran ka used engine mehanga aata hai, aur 660cc cars k kabli engines sastay partay Hain.

[ammarzebkn]

Bro I have changed the gear but the problem still persists. The mechanic is saying, its the turbo.
