Reconditioned Ford Ka Gearbox

A city car under heavy use: why does the Ford Ka gearbox fail?

The second-generation Ford Ka (2008–2016) is first and foremost a city car, used daily in heavy traffic, with constant gear changes at low speed and repeated clutch use. It is precisely this pattern of use that causes premature wear on the 5-speed manual gearbox fitted to the 1.2 (engine code 169A4000), the only petrol engine in the range.

The references found on this gearbox — including J7BR-7002-JNC, DS51-7002-AD or 55247643 — may vary depending on when Ford updated its parts nomenclature; the engine code 169A4000 remains the key identification reference to cross-check against the vehicle's year to confirm compatibility before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

Is a gearbox for this Ford model in stock?

We currently list 5 references reconditioned for this model. Availability depends on the exact engine: enter your number plate to confirm stock in real time, or request an online quote.

How can I be sure it is compatible with my Ford?

Compatibility depends on the engine / gearbox code, not just the model. The most reliable way is your number plate or registration document: our advisers confirm the right gearbox for your vehicle before you order.

Do I need to send back my old unit?

Yes, that is the principle of an exchange unit: you return your old gearbox (the core), which we recondition in turn. We arrange transport both ways, so you don't have to handle any logistics.

How long does it take to receive the gearbox for my Ford?

Once compatibility is confirmed and depending on the availability of the reference, the part leaves our workshop ready to fit, delivered throughout France and Europe, with payment in instalments available (up to 10 payments).
