I require some guidance concerning my car Hyundai i20 2014

Hello, everyone,

I'm turning to this community in search of advice and recommendations. I've encountered an unexpected challenge with my vehicle's transmission. It's recently become quite hesitant when attempting to shift into the top gear, often resulting in excessive revving before finally making the transition with a noticeable jolt. It feels like I'm approaching the day when "Top Gear" is just a TV show for me, even though I've heard it's nearing its end.

I'm contemplating the necessity of a transmission repair or replacement, but the impending cost is a source of concern, especially if I were to consider a Hyundai service center. Have any of you explored alternative options for a situation like this? I'm committed to using genuine parts but am open to any insights on reducing labor costs.

I'm currently located in Slough, United Kingdom. Can any of you recommend a reputable mechanic in Slough, UK, with expertise in this type of work? Given the significant financial commitment involved, I'm hesitant to make a hasty choice without a trusted referral.

I'm currently considering the following options:

Crank Start Ltd
Mr Clutch Autocentres
Your guidance and recommendations would be highly valued.

Can't advise on anyone particular as I'm not in your area, but I would tend to go for an independent specialist.

Reason: An isolated incident possibly, but I had a clutch replaced by Mr Clutch on my Renault Clio and when it went to my usual garage for service/MOT, they spotted bolts had been left untightened in critical areas...

As it turns out, my transmission was unalterable and demanded a comprehensive fix. I weighed the choice of a reconditioned transmission but, in the end, opted for a pristine alternative. I discovered this entity via the subsequent URL (https://asrgearboxrepairs.co.uk/location/slough/), and I can honestly say I'm content with their performance. They revamped my vehicle, and the cost was precisely as anticipated.
