Just want to let people know about major problems I have had with a gearbox assembled by XXX with their gear set. After it being taken out of the car 4 times I have had to get someone else to get it right.

The assembly was a total balls up from the start, if your considering the XXX gear set get some one else to do the installation. This has been going on for 12 months so I have not had a good experience. Hindsight it should have been a Holinger.

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles with XXX...

Probably not the best place to post this though because SAU doesn't take too kindly to business-bashing. Did they help you out on warranty?

Any defamatory remarks come back to the owner of the medium that is publishing them to the world. His name is Prank. He doesn't like being sued.

But to be honest, this isn't really that bad, and it's probably just a once off. Some more information would be good though, like if they charged you for the work more then once or something...

that's not bashing. It is consumer advice.

Whatever name you want to give it...on a widely viewed forum where the business hasn't had a chance to give their side of the story...it's a bit inappropriate.

Hmmmm, yeah nah.

As per the notes above - forum rules do not allow you to name a business in a negative light to protect the forum owners.

This thread has been cleanup up, and as long as you don't post the name or obvious details the thread can say. You are welcome to use private messages to share the business name but not posting publically.

I reckon what should be done is like come up with code names right, and then there is some other webpage on the interwebz right, which has a list of these code names and next to these are random words but like coincidentally some sound similar to company names!

Genius I know, pass us another beer

Just to clear the air regards the said manufacture who are based in Adelaide and assembled my gear box. Yes the issues are something people need to be aware of, now I have spent a total of $18,000 to get this gearbox right, I am not the only idiot who thought the manufacture of the product knew what they were doing, I have had people from all over the country ringing me to tell me of their problems with the same product.

Warranty.......... Ha Ha.... forget it...

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
