hello i need help with my genesis i got it second hand from a freind but the gearbox was broke so i paid £200 to fix it after taking it out for about 10 mins the gearbox broke again so i took it to the same shop and he said that they are prone to it because of the plastic being able to move a little bit and then the gears hack each other up firstly anyone got any ideas if this is true and is there any way to fix it or shall i just sell it and get a more reliable tmaxx 3.3 ???



please help!!!

I hope that's a typo and you actually meant £20....

i wish it was but that was with labour aswell so any ideas?

For one...you're telling me you paid approx 311 us dollars to replace a gear box?!?!?!? Thats more than half the price of a brand new genesis. A brand new gear box costs about 7 dollars.....Also from what I have seen from other friends the Tmaxx isn't as reliable...

realy???? for the cen genesis 46 because he said that it was all alloy n thats why it costs so much so if not is it hard to do a gearbox?? and where could i purchase one from??

£200 for replacing a gearbox is an absolute joke, shouldn't have cost 1/4 of that...

Check ebay for a replacement.

Im not sure if you are talking about the gear box or the tranny case .. http://www.ultimatehobbies.com/istar.asp?a=6&id=CENGS007!1014 http://www.ultimatehobbies.com/istar.asp?a=6&id=CENGS057!1014

well to tell you the truth im a 16 year old first time petrol car owner n im guessing this car was not the best one for a beginer but the site you sent me http://www.ultimatehobbies.com/istar.asp?a=6&id=CENGS057!1014 it was inside of there is that a tranny? n when i tiped it up a substantioal amout of metal fell out im guessing it was from the cogs/gears sorry i just have no idea but again is this about 200 pounds worth

The cen trucks are considered to be very durable..Something else must be causing your problem. Here is the whole tranny assemelbed ready to drop in for 67 us dollars or about 34 pounds.....no where near 200 http://cgi.ebay.com/CEN-GENESIS-NEM-...2em118Q2el1247
