Hi guys,
I been looking at trading in my old sensible car to get back into a v8.
Got my eyes set on a ve ss. I have found a nice ve ss manual at a holden dealership with a nice colour, reasonable kms and unmodified.
After speaking with holden i have found out that after it was sitting in the yard for a few days they went to drive it and the reverse gear kept sticking abit so they
went to get it looked at and complete a rwc. Turns out that the gearbox had to be replaced.
This has sent alarm bells ringing for me as this tells me that the car might have been thrashed or not treated well.
Just wanting to know what else could be likely to be damaged or need replacing as a result of needing a new gearbox.
And is this a tell tale sale that the car has been trashed?
Thanks.
