Does anybody know how much it would cost for an auto box rebuild

I've dealt with Gearbox Solutions in Liverpool in the past.

Would recommend.

Hey - found this old post and was wondering how did you go? I am having a similar issue with an auto gearbox on a 2001 Caravelle and am tossing around the idea of a rebuild or manual conversion

On a T4 I was told back in 2001 that a new one was around $12k but there could be some places who will do it for less , apparently the VW dealer here in Brisbane used to send theirs to a company in Melbourne for rebuilding . Whilst a manual would be cheaper there would need to be some problems with the electronics and then adding another pedal clutch lines and shifter all possible though . Maybe look into buying a write off in manual and swapping out the runnnning gear if not damaged in the front too much , I did this with my sons T4 I converted it from a 2.4 diesel to a 2.5 petrol . Bought one on Ebay with a bid of $3600 picked up the van in Coffs Harbour and drove it back to Brisbane , swapped all the engine and other bits in to sons van and then refitted the diesel stuff into the ebay van did some tidying up with interrior and some small paint jobs and stuck it back on Ebay and got $5500 !

My previous T4 was an auto. & while it was trouble free I do remember to have one rebuilt at the time [pre 2008] was around $6000. I don't remember if that included removal. The company recommended at the time was in Melbourne.

I have a 2008 T5 Multivan which had a drive line issue, I followed up A&B Automotive from your advise and I was very happy with the outcome. Thanks for your help Jetta.
