Hi
I have to fit a replacement gearbox to the above car, Is there anyway the box can be removed and replaced. Without the complete engine/gearbox
removal, which is the recomended way.
Thanks

I've done a 1.9DTi which must be fairly similar. You need to undo the rack mounting bolts and drop the subframe out. Gearbox then comes off the end - like a lot of modern stuff really. IIRC you can leave the subframe dangling but can't remember why I did !

HTH

Thanks Dick
Sounds like an option i might try. Never thought of taking off the rack mountings,
As removing the complete unit, Looks like having to disconnect the Air con etc.

Update
Gearbox now removed and on the bench, Removed the complete subframe as suggested above.
Now i would like to repair this box, rather than replace, (broken shaft that comes out of diff to connect to o/s/f driveshaft).
Does anybody have strip/rebuild repair procedure that they could let me have.
It looks reasoably okay to remove the bell housing, to main gearbox, To access diff. But don`t want to be caught out, with little parts popping out when seperated.
Thanks in Advance
Regards john

You will need to post the gearbox type number. Never had one with a broken output shaft, but the splines do go on the last 100mm (approx) of the driveshaft which is available at about £13

Kevin Thanks
The gearbox type is JC5 113, It probably was a drive shaft failure to start with. But some clown mig welded the damaged shaft back on to the gearbox shaft, and not being truly straight has broke the gearbox shaft, i have pics but never uploaded before. So if anyone has any strip/repair procedure i would be grateful. This is a very clean car, which i intend to use myself.

Ps i have tho official renault EPC, and the cost of the parts are not that bad

Many thanks
John
