DCT / Dual Clutch Gearbox Repairs and Reconditioning
Dual clutch gearboxes deliver quick, seamless gear changes and high performance, but they are also some of the most complex and expensive transmissions to repair. At Gearbox Gurus, our specialist technicians use advanced diagnostics, genuine components, and proven repair methods to restore dual clutch gearboxes to peak performance at a fraction of main dealer costs.
What is a Dual Clutch Gearbox?
A dual clutch gearbox uses two clutches to pre-select gears, allowing faster and smoother gear changes compared to traditional automatics. One clutch handles odd-numbered gears while the other manages even-numbered gears, allowing the next gear to be pre-selected before you even shift.
While they provide impressive performance and fuel efficiency, dual clutch gearboxes are also highly complex and require expert attention when faults occur. That's why thousands of UK drivers trust Gearbox Gurus for professional dual clutch transmission diagnostics, repairs, and reconditioning.
Common DCT Gearbox Issues

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, early diagnostics can save you from costly repairs and get you back on the road faster.

Had a really great experience with these guys. Ross's technical knowledge shines through. It turns out the problem was coming from the ABS module and not the gearbox. They wouldn't accept any payment. Honest mechanics would use again.
