Peugeot Valve Body for Sale in South Africa

Yes — rebuilders like Maktrans strip the valve body, replace worn solenoids, re-machine bores where needed and reassemble. It's usually half the cost of a new unit and lasts as long. We only recommend new for severely damaged bodies with cracked alloy.

Garage shift is the clunk you feel engaging Drive or Reverse from Park when the gearbox is cold. A gentle bump is normal; a hard bang, especially when warm, points at a worn 1-2 clutch solenoid or accumulator in the valve body. Book a scan.
