Fiat 500 gearbox in Hampshire

[craigjm]

Does anyone know any Fiat specialists in or near Hampshire. Friend has a 2012 500, unsure of engine, apparently it needs a new gearbox and she has been quoted £1600 by a local garage to supply and fit. It sure if that’s a good price or whether there are better places to take it….. I suggested the scrap yard and it didn’t go down well

Tell her to look for a used transmission.

The quote is for a recon box and fitting. It’s not a new unit

No way can they be charging £1300 for labour, a new clutch & flywheel.

Which is why I am asking for recommendations as to where to take it

Is it a manual or automatic gearbox?

ETA: Or did the 500 not get the "Selespeed" as an option?
