Subaru Gearbox Google Reviews

Niazi was a great help to with the parts I need for my subaru.Great communication, calls and follow-up.

Just got off the horn with Thomas and received very reasonable and transparent pricing for lots of work to the car. These guys have always been a pleasure to work with and have bent over backwards helping me out over the phone and in person. Great company!

Taken my Levorg to ADS to have it go through a major service, fix a radiator pipe and to install a CVT cooler later on. Very good explanation from Niazi for everything and great service overall.

Excellent service from these guys, helped with a rebuilt engine under warranty and have provided awesome aftercare and assistance with a minor issue afterwards. Definitely recommend them and would and am still using there services.A++++++++++++++++++++

Tomas and his team went out of their way to help me with a rebuilt gearbox for my 2006 WRX that had broken down in Sydney while on a trip from Brisbane. Subaroo managed to supply the gearbox in less than 3 days at a very affordable price.I have now driven more than 1000km back to Brisbane and am very satisfied with the response and smoothness of the gearbox. Great job, team !

Very pleased, great service, knowledgeable, able to advise best options, very professional and patient , prompt delivery, recommended.

These guys are great. The gearbox is purchased is amazing. Thier customer service is top notch. Products are awesome. Highly recommend. I live on other side of country and had many questions which they were happy to help with. My gearbox came a lot quicker than expected and performs amazing.

Incredible inspection done to my 97 wrx, problems were clearly explained and staff was very polite and great to deal with. will be coming back again.

If you're looking to own a Subaru long-term or understand Subaru maintenance, go to their shop! Leave the professional work to their professional team!

Fantastic service, high and quality workmanship at reasonable cost. Very helpful staff - highly recommend!

Great service, prompt and friendly responses of all the team. If you want people who truly know how to look after your Subaru car these are the people for it

Excellent business values along with quality work has always made this company my number 1 for Gearboxes etc. OK...Must be over 5 years now and gearbox still tight and feels Brand New, well better than brand new very tight box.... the workmanship that has gone into this gearbox is above 100%

great service , very friendly staff would highly recommend them

Highly recommend All Drive Subarooo! The team is super kind and fast with their responses. What I appreciated most was their honest advice. It’s hard to find a mechanic you can trust like this. Great experience

Got to say, I couldn't be happier with the customer service here, their wealth of knowledge they share, the patient explanation, the attention to detail, the honest opinions and the repairs done so well... every time ! Have been confidently bringing my XV here for some years now.... never been disappointed. Always a pleasure when dealing with Rob and Thomas and their team. Well done guys

Thanks ADS,I sent an e-mail to ADS 2 hours ago about my problems, I had just received a call back with some basic troubleshooting steps to try out first. I haven't even been to ADS yet, yet the willingness to help.. 5 stars!Really appreciate the call, especially when I've been stressing about the problem for a month.Cheers!

I was referred to All Drive Subaroo by a mechanic in Northern NSW to enquire with some highly technical questions about engine internals.The technicians were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and happy to help.I've called a few times since, with questions specific to Subarus, and each person I spoke to was highly expert.Would love to make my way to All Drive Subaroo for an engine rebuild in the future.

Super easy to deal with and knowledgeable too.Ordered a level 2 motor to replace my old tired ej251 along with associated parts, it arrived promptly and is noticeably smoother than the old one.The whole process was straightforward and well explained.

Couldn't be happier with All Drive Subaroo. From the 1st phone call Tomas was polite, helpful with a wealth of knowledge he helped me through supplying an exchange engine for my 09 Forester and also chased some other parts for me when I couldn't find them myself. When you go there all the staff put the customer 1st and are happy to help. What a wonderful , knowledgable , professional outlet for all Subaru needs. Thank you guys.Mick S.

Legends over the phone. I think my engine will be as good as their sales 🤞

Legends!!

The staff at ADS quickly diagnosed the ‘hum’ coming from the rear of our beloved stock 04 XT. It was their last day of trading for 2025 and they said they would be able to get a new bearing fitted- while we wait! They gave us a loan car so we were not inconvenienced. Such amazing service from such wonderful people! It’s a shame we don’t live in Sydney or they would be the ones we go to for all our Subie work- thanks again legends!

I wouldn't and couldn't take our Forester anywhere else -- I drive half way across Sydney to get their expert and honest service -- and it has sure paid off recently when we have needed realtime advice and quick service. These guys are great.

Tomas and his crew at All Drive Subaroo have been amazing. After buying a late model XV Subaroo 2014, I discovered it had a head gasket issue which the vendor clearly knew about but of course neglected to mention. I knew about All Drive Subaroo from looking for panels for a Forester we had at the time. This guy lives and breathes Subarus what he doesnt know isnt worth knowing.The idea that we have a company that makes technical improvements on the original as well as offering performance Cosworth mods if required was a revelation in itself. Then we get to pricing,I took to vehicle to a Subaru dealer, they said it had a head gasket issue and would cost $5,000 to do a head gasket job. When I took the car there the price had grown to $6,000 with no itemised quote and no guarantee for work done. After Id recovered from my Cardiac arrest, I got in touch with Tomas who furnished me with 3 options all with some degree of guarantee. I opted for the stage 3 motor which was basically a new motor with unlimited kilometres guarantee and a good time period for a bit over 7k, there are other budget friendly options. This corrects known issues like oil consumption and head gasket issues with new parts and custom made solutions.When you immerse yourself in the pool there are always a few sharks. I cant recommend these guys enough and would certainly go to Tomas and the crew again. I think my next project will be similar but with a "cooking" motor. Thank you Thomas for all your help. I appreciate it very much ,.

Best experience with a mechanic I’ve had!Quick to get back to me after using their online form. Great communication and explained things in an easy to understand manner. They even dropped me off at the station so I could get to work on time while having the repairs done.They had the parts needed ready to go and were able to fit the repair in at short notice, had my car back within 24 hours. Price seemed reasonable too.Would definitely recommend for Subaru drivers needing servicing and repairs in Sydney Southwest area.

Good service and helped me out with a part that was hard to find thank you

I didnt get what I needed but Rob was so very helpful explaining which part I really needed and why. Very much appreciated as will save me alot of time looking for what I need. Thankyou Rob.

Really helpful staff that have excellent knowledge and expertise

Rob at ADS was extremely helpful and was happy to share a heap of information regarding repairs on the gearbox of my forester. Although they didn’t have the parts available for my gearbox he gave me plenty of tips and steered me in the right direction. Appreciate the help!

Big shout out to the Guys & Gales at ADSI have a rather raty looking 05 Forester, normally asperated, and thay hooked me up with one of there remanufactured motors,, its five years now still going strong, , gives turbo jobies a run : )Great people, great service 👍

Fantastic service. Wouldn't take my Subaru anywhere else.

I’ve been running an ADS modified dual range gearbox in my Subaru rally/tar car for more than 10 years now. I had a 12kg viscous coupling installed, the box and rear diff were serviced, and both have not missed a beat from some fairly tough use. Currently in the process of looking at a 20kg upgrade for a 2nd Subaru. Thanks to ADS for their knowledge and assistance.Paul Karpathy

I recently had the suspension bushes on my Subaru Impreza replaced and a service completed at All Drive Subaroo. The team was extremely friendly, communicative, and took the time to explain the repairs to me in a clear and helpful way. I really appreciated the professionalism and attention to detail. I’m very pleased with the quality of the work and the overall service. Highly recommend!

From the initial phone call to completing the job ADS were thoughtful, kind and efficient in fixing my car’s TPMS issue.I recommend them.

Excellent communication with sorting engine options for the WRX

My only regret was not getting one of ADS's stage 3 5sp gearboxes a year ago.. But when 3rd gear in my standard 'box finally decided to leave the chat, Tom, Nasi and the team at ADS had my new custom gearbox built within a week!Professional, prompt and the quality of their work is unsurpassed. The new 5sp is far better than OEM with smoother 1st-2nd shifts and a much better centre diff.Get one of their Subaru gearbox solutions into your car before the standard one dies!

Absolutely worth the drive!I'm so fortunate to have found the team at All Drive Subaroo. I live over an hour away in the Illawarra, but from now on, my car will only be going to them! My Subaru needed a new gearbox, among other things that were carefully identified, and I’m incredibly grateful to have discovered ADS.From the moment I made contact, the service was impeccable. When I picked up my car today, the owner Niazi personally took the time to discuss with thr process that my car had gone through. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and made sure I left feeling confident and informed about the process.I also dealt with Rob and Tomas during the repair - both were fantastic communicators who made me feel truly looked after throughout. Communication was absolutely on point at every step.The workshop itself is big, spotless, and clearly well-maintained. You can tell straight away that this is the place that will take care of your car.If you’ve got a Subie – this is where you want to bring it.Thanks again to Niazi and the ADS boys. 👊🏼

I had some questions about Subaru's Lineatronic CVT, and Robert from ADS responded quickly & succinctly every time.

Robb was so helpful regarding my Subaru recently. This company and all its employees go above and beyond to address any concerns you have about your Suburu. I highly recommend All Drive Subaroo.

Such pleasant folk to do business with, I even got a guided tour of the factory and workshops, thanks to Tomas.Having now had a level 3 engine, installed in my 2005 Subaru forester, it has been given a new lease of life. It was a long trip from the Snowy Mountains to Peakhurst and the work done was worth every cent.I drove the renewed forester home and then went camping in the bush, it performed impeccably and was a pleasure to drive. At just short of 1000km, as instructed, I performed an oil and filter change, I have to say the oil that came out was squeaky clean as when it went in, such was the efficiency of the rebuild and the staff/mechanics at ADS.Well the success of the 2024 level 3 engine in my 2005 Forester is so great, I decided that a 2025 level 3 transmission was warranted, I saved hard and ADS did not let me down. The new gearbox and differential are outstanding. The old CUBAN girl is running like a dream, I cannot recommend ADS more highly, Naz, Tomas, Rob and Joshua saw to it, I was in and out in a day.The old Subaru is like new and performed impeccably on the long drive back to the Snowy Mountains even the power and fuel consumption were vastly betterWell done another customer who believes you exceeded expectations.Rick Carey APTC rtd

Had lodged an enquiry online last week relating to a potential transmission issue on my 08 XT.Spoke with Rob who advised me to try the throttle cleaning first and then preform a battery reset to allow the idle to relearn. He said try this first before committing to such a large job.I took his advice and it resolved my issue, turns out my transmission is fine.Honesty goes a long way and this establishment has earned that level of respect. Thank you Rob.

Good People,Brilliant Workmanship & Service for any Subaru in NSW! My Tuned Forester XT always gets the perfect specialist maintenance here! Shout out to Niazi,Rob,Tom & Dimi!
