How much is it to fix or repair 5008 automatic gearbox (in UK)? Including part (i guess it could be bought from brakers)? Are there any difficulties in this process?
In general is it worth getting involved in buying a car with ruined gearbox or engine with intent of repairing (I’m not a mechanic myself)?
Many thanks

Re: 5008 gearbox repair replacement
If it is an EGS (computer controlled gearbox with clutch) then you should not go anywhere near it. We need more information about the car (the VIN number would releal all). In general I would suggest that it is not worth considering such a project unless the labour will cost you nothing.

Probably a version of the Aisin Warner six speed as fitted to my C5 Estate, not a job for a non mechanic and probably will cost more than the car's worth to get fixed at a garage.
I think Peugeot call it EAT 6

Re: 5008 gearbox repair replacement
Thanks! Do you know what kind of resource does this car engine/gearbox have? It’s really good looking car for a family (compared to Picasso c4), but financially i can only afford one with high mileage, what do you think is the limit for these cars?

As xantia_v6 has said, the VIN will tell you all you need to know about the car. Post it here and someone will look it up for you.
