Better than £481.00 plus Vat from Nissan and they have not got one anyway. Rick

Unless I've missed something we haven't got the gear box (or engine) out yet.

Would it not be a wise move to wait until we see the 'whole picture' before deciding what to do?

Sorry I missed your call Pete, had to take dad to the docs.

We do metal spraying in our place, the process involves blasting plasma (molten metal particles) onto the the component which can then be machined afterwords.
I would not trust this to be used in a gearbox as it is possible that through time and wear the applied metal spray could part company with the parent component with disasterous results.
We use it in the aircraft industry to create to create a seal within the compressor of a jet engine, its a soft material (not to the touch) that the aerofoils bed themselves into with centrafugal force creating a seal at the tip of the blades to give the enginge the thrust for take off.
