Wumpster,
 
I have heard of Carvers (or is it Carver Brothers?) in Stockport, they were recommended to me by a trusted mechanic that I have used for a while - he sends all his autobox work there. I have not used them myself but they are meant to be good.
 
Cheers

Hmmm the only thing I can find is this:
 
Carvers Transmissions Ltd
Unit 2 Turner Industrial Estate
Turner Street
Denton
Manchester
M34 3EG
 
0161 320 3400
 
Think this is it?  Huh
 
Can't find any others, if you want me to check I will pop and see my mechanic on Monday.
 
Here is the link too:

Gentlemen,
 
the above contact information IS accurate for Carvers.
 
In addition my mechanic said they have been busy recently so he has also suggested using the following:
 
Tameside Transmissions
Albert Street
Droylsden
Manchester
M43 7BA
0161 371 0422
 
Apparently both companies are good and offer warranties on their work.
 
Just to reiterate - I have no personal experience of these companies but Carver has been recommended to me on more than one occasion. Both companies are listed in the Yellow Pages, and on www.yell.com.
 
I will PM this too to make sure you get it.
 
Cheers

Hi everyone  Wink
Took the car in yesterday to my local gearbox man (have dealt with him for years) for gearbox service and a look into possible fittment of auxillary oil cooler, anyhow, apparently unawares to him and me and also maybe you, it turns out that filter in the box was changed from 1998 so please be aware. Now re-scheduled for next week for both service and oil cooler.  Smiley
