"Nissan CVT import failed, 7th Gear recommended. Difficult to make contact but eventually succeeded. Had the car for 15 days, said it would take 2 weeks. Car driving perfectly, 1 year guarantee and price less than original quotation. Overall, little less than full marks for initial contact, full marks for communication after that and very definitely full marks for work done and for pricing. Very efficient and professional. Thanks"

"Unusually for Ireland I could book my car in for a Saturday appointment which meant it didn’t interfere with weekday needs. My auto gearbox was in need of a full service. After getting quotes for up to €320 from others, I had the service done here in one hour and paid €220. Friendly and efficient service from a very busy specialist transmission shop. Thanks 7th Gear !"

"VW DSG Gearbox Fixed – Brilliant Service! I recently had issues with my 7-speed DSG automatic gearbox, showing repeated transmission failure errors—really worrying stuff. After doing some research, I brought my car to 7th Gear Gearbox Repairs, and I'm so glad I did. From the start, their team was professional and reassuring. They carried out a free gearbox performance check, including a full diagnostic and road test. They explained everything clearly and gave me a free quote before starting any work, which I appreciated. ON A SATURDAY! The repair was done quickly and thoroughly in their dedicated machine shop. They rebuilt the gearbox and resolved the issue completely—no more error messages, and the car now drives smoothly and confidently. Best of all, their work came with a 12-month unlimited mileage guarantee, which gave me total peace of mind. Everyone I dealt with was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about getting it right. I highly recommend 7th Gear if you're having any gearbox problems—especially with DSG transmissions. Truly expert service!"
