Help wanted for suspected oil leak and gearbox replacing!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi posted a link earlier really do need help.
We have a vaneo 1.7 cdi ambiente diesel automatic.this car has been into the garage quite alot over the last few months due to creaking noise which then went to a squeaking noise,the brakepads were replaced.we then had smoke coming from underneath the car which was oil splashed underneath.as soon as the car is filled with oil within 24hrs the car shows no oil on the dipstick.the garage cannot find where the oil leak is coming from.
After getting the car back for the garage it seems to struggle getting in and out of gear and shakes violently from side to side.the garage have now said that the gearbox needs replacing and it maybe where the oil leak is??
They have quoted £1500-£2000,we have a friend who can fit a gearbox in if we can find one which after spending the whole day online and the phone isn't easy!!!evetually found one which will be £748 inc vat this is from an aclass.
Would really like some advice and help many thanks fay
