Reconditioned Ford Transit 3.2 TDCi Gearbox – 6-Speed Manual – Ref. 8C1R-7003-AG

Reconditioned Ford Transit 3.2 TDCi Gearbox

This reconditioned gearbox is designed for Ford Transit vehicles fitted with the 3.2 TDCi engine (engine code SAFA, engine capacity 3198 cm³) and carries the reference 8C1R-7003-AG. A 6-speed manual gearbox, it is fitted to vans and chassis-cabs used in professional service, often subjected to heavy loads, frequent stops and a demanding work rate that places considerable strain on the internal transmission components. The reference 8C1R-7003-AG is the same across all versions covered by this engine.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On a Transit fitted with the 3.2 TDCi, wear on the manual gearbox often shows itself through characteristic symptoms, particularly when the vehicle is driven fully loaded on a daily basis:

• Stiff or crunching gear changes, especially in 2nd or 5th
• Vibrations or judder felt through the gear lever when changing gear
• A dull rumbling noise in neutral that worsens when driving or under load
• A gear that jumps out or refuses to engage fully, particularly on hills
• Visible oil leak at the casing, with a drop in oil level noted during servicing

Ignoring these signs risks a complete gear seizure or internal damage that is far more costly to repair.

A Reconditioned Gearbox, Sold on a Deferred Exchange Basis

This reconditioned gearbox undergoes a full strip-down, cleaning and systematic inspection of every internal component. Gears, synchromesh rings, bearings and seals are replaced as required, then the unit is reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch. The arrangement offered is a deferred exchange: the reconditioned gearbox referenced 8C1R-7003-AG is delivered and fitted first, meaning the garage is never left without a part and the vehicle is not kept off the road unnecessarily. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected once the new unit has been installed; return of the old unit is required, in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

This reconditioned gearbox is compatible with Ford Transit vehicles fitted with the 3.2 TDCi engine associated with engine code SAFA, for reference 8C1R-7003-AG.

Warranty and Payment

This reconditioned gearbox is covered by a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Payment for your order can be spread over up to 10 instalments, to make budgeting for this replacement easier.
