Refurbished, used, new - what does it all mean?
Refurbished units
Most of our factory refurbished gearboxes, transfer units, differentials and turbos are hand-picked from ISO-certified factories that already perform, or have performed, original refurbishment for car manufacturers. Refurbishment means that the unit is disassembled and thoroughly cleaned before known wearing parts are replaced. Other parts are inspected and replaced if necessary. A refurbished unit can be considered "almost new".
We call refurbished gearboxes refurbished.
Used units
Used gearboxes, transfer units, differentials and turbos are dismantled from vehicles. Used units are hand-picked with focus on quality from a large network of selected suppliers in Sweden, Europe and North America. The unit is carefully evaluated in our quality control and receives a thorough review before delivery. We call used gearboxes used.
New (brand new) units
A new unit is by definition a completely unused unit. It has often been in stock for some time, but never been installed or used. A new unit should not be confused with a refurbished unit that look new; these are two different things. Some original manufacturers call a refurbished unit new, even though the unit is not. We call new units new unit, brand new unit or new unit from factory.
Repaired units
A repair means that a repairman focus on a specific fault (and that fault only) in the unit. However, a unit might have several faults/problems that affect its function. The warranty on repair performed does not cover defects other than the original repair, which means that you can spend a lot of money getting a broken unit repaired just to find that it still isn't working and you will need to pay even more. After four decades in this industry we understand the complicity of our products and that is the reason we do not perform single repairs. We work with factory refurbished and good quality used units which allows us to take full responsibility.
What is the exchange system?
When we sell a factory refurbished or used gearbox, transfer unit, differential or turbos we request the broken unit (core) in return. Through an exchange system, the broken core is incorporated into our constantly ongoing cycle of recycling. The broken core is thoroughly refurbished and placed on the warehouse shelf. When sold it gets replaced with another broken core and the cycle starts over. This is known as the exchange system, our recycling philosophy.

The advantages of exchange units
- An exchange unit can be installed at the same occasion as the broken unit is removed from the vehicle. The car does not have to sit useless for days or weeks on a car lift in the workshop.
- If a problem occur with the new unit, troubleshooting will be considerably more efficient with an exchange unit compared to a traditional repair.
- Since we have most exchange units in stock we can easily solve warranty cases with a replacement unit. No need to wait for a slow repair process.
