Audi Gearboxes for Sale

Used S-tronic, DSG, multitronic CVT, tiptronic automatic and manual Audi gearboxes, tested, warrantied and delivered nationwide.

Looking for a used Audi gearbox for sale in South Africa? We dismantle Audi models every week, which means we carry tested second-hand gearboxes for almost every model and engine combination, from S-tronic and DSG dual-clutch units to multitronic CVTs, tiptronic automatics and manual boxes.

Audi gearboxes have a few specific weak points, worn DSG clutch packs and failing mechatronic units, slipping multitronic CVTs and tired torque converters. Rather than pay for an expensive rebuild, many owners fit a tested replacement box from a low-mileage donor. Send us your VIN and we’ll match the correct gearbox code to your car.

Used Audi Gearboxes — Choosing the Right Unit

Gearbox trouble doesn’t always mean a full replacement. The most common Audi failures — a worn DSG clutch pack, a faulty mechatronic, a slipping multitronic CVT or a tired torque converter — each have a different, often cheaper, fix. Describe the symptoms and we’ll tell you whether a complete unit or just a matched control module is the smarter buy before you spend a cent.

Every box is matched to its gearbox code, and most automatics need basic adaptation once fitted. If the gearbox has failed because the engine has been run hard, it’s worth checking the motor at the same time — owners often pair a replacement box with a complete replacement engine from the same era to avoid a second job down the line. Browse Audi Q5 parts or send your VIN for an exact match.

Don’t forget the quattro driveline

On all-wheel-drive cars the gearbox is only half the story. If you’re hearing driveline noise as well as gear-selection faults, a worn quattro transfer case may be contributing — and it’s far cheaper sourced used than new. We can quote the gearbox and the transfer unit together so the whole driveline goes back together right.

Gearboxes — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have Audi S-tronic and DSG gearboxes in stock?

Yes. We regularly strip Audi models fitted with S-tronic and DSG dual-clutch gearboxes, so we hold complete used units as well as mechatronic control units. Send us your VIN or registration and we’ll confirm the exact part number that fits your car.

How much does a used Audi gearbox cost?

Pricing depends on type and condition. A manual box can start around R2,500, a DSG or multitronic unit runs roughly R4,500–R25,000, and a ZF tiptronic or 0B5 S-tronic can reach R50,000 on the larger models. We quote each gearbox individually, delivery included.

Does a faulty DSG mean I need a whole new gearbox?

Not always. The most common DSG failure is the mechatronic unit (the valve body and control module), which can often be replaced on its own for far less than a complete gearbox. Describe the symptoms and we’ll tell you whether a mechatronic or a full unit is the smarter buy.

Is the gearbox tested before it ships?

Every gearbox we sell is inspected and, where possible, bench- or test-run before dispatch. Each unit is sold with our standard 30-day warranty so you can fit it with confidence.

Will the gearbox need coding after fitment?

Automatic and dual-clutch units usually need basic adaptation/coding to your car once fitted, a quick job for any Audi specialist. Manual boxes are plug-and-play. We’ll flag anything specific to your gearbox when we quote.

Can you deliver a gearbox to my city?

Yes. We palletise and freight gearboxes nationwide from our Centurion premises, with delivery to every province in South Africa. Collection from our yard is also welcome.
