These guys are in Belgium, but do an exchange program: http://www.am-tc.be/porsche.shtml

Edit: It is a ZF transmission, so you might find a more local company that could overhaul it. It was also used by Audi and BMW with minor differences.

Thank you very much for the info.

I know that audi uses the same type of gearbox,but they have many types of 5hp19,and each one has its own parts(part numbers)inside. How will i know which type of 5hp19 of Audi should match to a86-00?Moreover,i don't trust anyone here in greece to make this experiment to my gearbox,if he hasn't done another.

Go over to www.ppbb,com and ask lefteris this question. He is in Athens and has connections. Put his name in the subject line like "Lefteris, can you help"

As I understand it, it is only the valve block orifices and soleniods that are specific to Porsche. If you don't have a problem with the valve block it should be relatively straightforward to repair by any transmission centre familiar with ZF. I have the general spare parts lists for the ZF 5HP 19 transmission in pdf format which I downloaded from the US ZF web site a while ago. If it would help, email me if you would like a copy.

The transmission died, after a big seal leakage, has run out of oil and has worn out the discs. The disks were probably worn out because the oil that was left inside was totally black and smelled a lot.At this point the check engine sign appeared and indicated that 2nd,3rd,5th gear were off. We have changed the transmission as well as the converter with good 2nd hand parts but it is a pity to throw the old gearbox away.

If you could please email me the relevant pdf's at scareng at gmail.com ....
