Nissan Almera 1.5 Manual Gearbox Repairs + Rebuilds

Nissan Almera Gearbox RebuildsNissan Almera 1.5 Manual Gearbox Problems
Another common failing gearbox is fitted to the Nissan Almera 1.5l Petrol. It’s a 5-Speed manual gearbox and we’ve seen these coming in with many faults including input shaft bearings shot and crown wheel damage. When the Nissan Almera gearbox fails, we rebuild it using uprated parts (where possible) to strengthen the box.

Common Nissan Almera Gearbox Faults

  • Gears Crunching
  • Stuck In Gear
  • Not Going Into Gear
  • Jumping Out of Gear
  • Noisy Gearbox (Whining / Grinding)
  • Gear Problems When Hot
  • Gear Problems When Cold

Most garages and dealerships will advise on replacing the gearbox. If you manage to find a new replacement gearbox, it will be very expensive and with a limited 12 month warranty. A quick search will find you many second-hand (used) gearboxes available from breakers / scrap yards and will come with a limited 30-90 day warranty. These gearboxes are so weak and such common failures, don’t be surprised if after fitting a second-hand gearbox you find yourself back in the same situation not too far down the line. All Nissan Almera 1.5 gearboxes are failing – you run a higher risk buying from a high mileage or front accident damaged car.

  • Hi we are having trouble getting gears into first and reverse ,We have an almera 2005 petrol 57 thousand miles can you please help to find the problem.
    Thanks Eric

    • Hi Eric

      Thanks for the enquiry,

      This could be a gearbox problem but also could be a linkage issue so I would disconnect the linkage arm and try change it at the gearbox manually to see how it goes in and out of gears.

      I’ve sent you a quick email with further information and pricing to rebuild the gearbox if that is the problem.

      Kind Regards

  • Hi, I have a 2004 Almera, the only problem is that it sometimes won’t go into third – all other gears are fine. Could this be the linkage? If not how much would a rebuild cost?
    Thanks, Mark.

    • Hi Mark

      Thanks for the enquiry,

      It can be a linkage issue however I’ve sent you an email with pricing and repair information to have your gearbox overhauled if that is the cause of the problem. I suspect it will more than likely be the gearbox if it’s only happening in third. Especially considering this is such a common failing gearbox.

      Kind Regards
