Reconditioned MINI Cooper 1.6 Petrol Gearbox – Reference GS5-52BG-TBFA

This reconditioned 5-speed manual gearbox is designed for MINI Cooper models fitted with the 1.6 petrol engine (1598 cm³), compatible with engine codes W10B16, N12B16 and N16B16, and carries the reference GS5-52BG-TBFA. Reconditioning follows a rigorous process: the gearbox is fully stripped down, every component is cleaned and inspected, internal wear parts such as gears, synchros, bearings and seals are replaced, and the unit is reassembled to manufacturer tolerances before undergoing a bench test.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On a MINI Cooper 1.6, several warning signs should not be ignored: stiff or crunching gear changes, the gearbox jumping into neutral unexpectedly, vibrations felt through the gear lever when changing gear, or a grinding noise audible in third and fifth. These symptoms indicate internal wear that warrants replacement of the GS5-52BG-TBFA gearbox.

Exchange Basis: A Reconditioned Gearbox With No Downtime

Under this exchange arrangement, the reconditioned gearbox is dispatched first so that your vehicle is not left off the road. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected once the new unit has been delivered and fitted. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

This GS5-52BG-TBFA gearbox is compatible with the 1.6 petrol engines bearing codes W10B16, N12B16 and N16B16, as fitted to the MINI Cooper.

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 can be spread over multiple instalments, with up to 10 instalments available.

EDEN BOITES supports you every step of the way, from your initial quote through to collection of the old unit.
