Hi all
Eventually got the punto back 3 weeks ago. Driving home Saturday the gearbox on my 2008 1.2 8v punto decided to blow up... just as it turned 40,001 on the clock!
1500 miles ago I had the driveshaft seals and gear box oil changed, but since then someone drove into it at 40 mph whilst it was parked, causing it to be launched into a round about. so its also been back and forth from the insurance company due to their crap standard of repair work on the car over the last 4 months!
So any way damage to the box could have been caused by the accident? or the insurance company garage messing about with it?
