Reconditioned Fiat 500 1.3 Gearbox – Reference 55275954

This reconditioned gearbox for the Fiat 500 1.3 petrol (1248 cm³) restores full reliability to your transmission. It is compatible with vehicles fitted with the 169A1000 and 199B4000 engines and corresponds to reference 55275954. Every 5-speed manual gearbox is fully overhauled before being returned to service, ensuring long-lasting performance once installed on the vehicle.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

Several warning signs point to wear on the Fiat 500's manual gearbox: increasingly stiff gear changes, a crunching noise when changing down, gears jumping out whilst driving, the gearbox slipping into neutral for no apparent reason, or an unusual vibration through the gear lever. A constant metallic noise whilst driving or difficulty engaging first gear from cold often complete the picture. These symptoms generally indicate advanced internal wear and call for a full gearbox replacement rather than a partial repair.

Full Reconditioning Process

The gearbox is completely stripped down, and every component is individually cleaned and inspected. Worn internal parts are then replaced: gears, synchros, bearings and seals. The unit is reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch, guaranteeing performance identical to that of a new gearbox.

Exchange Basis: Reconditioned Unit Delivered Before the Old One Is Returned

This gearbox is supplied on an exchange basis: the reconditioned unit is delivered first, so the garage is never left without a part and the vehicle is not kept off the road. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected after the new unit has been delivered and fitted; return of the old unit is required in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility
