Commercial Vehicle Transmission & Gearbox Repairs
When a commercial vehicle develops a transmission or gearbox problem, getting it back on the road quickly is essential. A failed gearbox can leave an HGV, bus, coach or other commercial vehicle off the road, affecting deliveries, passenger services and fleet operations.
Ecodrive Transmissions specialises in commercial vehicle transmission and gearbox repairs, providing experienced technical support for HGV and PSV operators throughout the UK. With more than 25 years of experience and specialist knowledge of commercial vehicle transmissions, we help customers find a practical and cost-effective solution to gearbox problems.
From a gearbox that is slipping or banging between gears to a complete transmission failure, our team can assess the problem and advise on the most appropriate repair, overhaul or exchange solution.

Commercial gearbox repair specialists
Transmission problems can develop in a number of ways. A vehicle may begin to experience difficulty selecting gears, unusual noises, slipping, harsh gear changes or intermittent faults before eventually becoming unable to operate.
Customers commonly contact us about problems including:
- Gearbox slipping
- Transmission slipping
- Gearbox banging or harsh gear changes
- Difficulty selecting gears
- Gearbox noises
- Transmission warning lights
- Loss of drive
- Gearbox oil leaks
- Gear selection problems
- Transmission failure
- Gearbox overheating
- Electronic or actuator faults
Identifying the cause of the problem is important. In some cases, a complete gearbox overhaul may be necessary, while in others a specific component, actuator or associated transmission part may be the cause.
Gearbox repair, overhaul or exchange?
Ecodrive can help determine the most suitable solution for your vehicle.
Depending on the condition of the transmission, this could include repairing the existing gearbox, carrying out a complete overhaul, supplying a remanufactured or exchange gearbox, or replacing individual components.
For vehicles that are off the road and urgently required back in service, an exchange gearbox can provide an efficient alternative to waiting for an existing transmission to be repaired.
HGV and PSV transmission expertise
Our experience covers transmission systems used in commercial vehicles including HGVs, buses and coaches. We work with major manufacturers and transmission systems, with particular expertise in ZF equipment.
Ecodrive is a ZF Services Partner, providing specialist support for ZF commercial vehicle transmissions and associated components.
Minimising vehicle downtime
For commercial operators, the cost of a gearbox failure isn’t limited to the repair itself. Every day a vehicle is unavailable can affect fleet capacity, deliveries, passenger services and operating costs.
Our approach is therefore focused on providing an efficient solution while maintaining the required standards of repair and testing. Transmission units are tested using ZF Testman equipment to industry standards before leaving our facility.
We also operate our own collection and delivery vehicle and have access to a pallet distribution network, supporting collections and deliveries throughout the UK
