Customer reviews
What drivers say
The Hilux auto was slipping between second and third — they diagnosed a burnt band, rebuilt the valve body and had it back in four days. Drives like new and the warranty gives us peace of mind for the farm.— Rachel M., Havelock North, 2025
Our courier fleet runs 16 Hiace vans. Gearshift handles scheduled fluid services and any rebuild work. Downtime matters to us and they understand that — loan van same day, every time.— Mark P., Napier Couriers, fleet manager
I was quoted $6,500 elsewhere for a CVT replacement. Gearshift reconditioned mine for $3,400 with a two-year warranty. It has been flawless for 18 months.— Tina L., Hastings, 2024
