Reconditioned Renault Clio 1.4 Gearbox – 5-Speed Manual – Ref. JB1966

Reconditioned Renault Clio 1.4 Petrol Gearbox – Reference JB1966

This reconditioned gearbox for the Renault Clio 1.4 Petrol, reference JB1966, is a 5-speed manual unit designed for E7J and K4J engines with an engine capacity of 1390 cm³. The reconditioning process involves a full strip-down, thorough cleaning and inspection of every component, followed by replacement of all wear items including gears, synchros, bearings and seals. The gearbox is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch, ensuring performance that meets original specifications and long-term reliability in everyday use.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On a Clio fitted with the E7J or K4J engine, several warning signs should not be ignored: stiff or imprecise gear changes, a crunching noise when selecting first gear or reverse, gears jumping out whilst driving, vibrations felt through the gear lever, or a persistent grinding noise that worsens with speed. These symptoms point to internal wear that cannot be resolved by a simple adjustment and, if left unattended, will eventually cause the gearbox to seize completely. Replacing the JB1966 gearbox then becomes necessary to restore safe operation.

Exchange Basis – No Waiting Around

This JB1966 gearbox is sold on an exchange basis: the reconditioned unit is dispatched first, without waiting for the old unit to be returned. The garage is therefore never left without a part and the vehicle does not have to sit on the ramp throughout the process. Once the new gearbox has been received and fitted, the old gearbox – with its casing intact – must be returned: return of the old unit is required under our Terms and Conditions, and ensures the exchange is completed properly.

Compatibility

This reconditioned gearbox is compatible with E7J and K4J engines fitted to the Renault Clio 1.4 Petrol, with an engine capacity of 1390 cm³. It is a direct match for OEM reference JB1966, making identification straightforward for both garages and private customers.

Warranty and Payment

The JB1966 gearbox comes with a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over up to 10 instalments to help manage the cost of the repair.
