Reliable Used Lotus Transmissions – Tested, VIN-Matched & Warrantied

Used Lotus Transmissions You Can Trust

When your Lotus transmission fails, replacing the entire vehicle isn’t necessary. A professionally inspected used Lotus transmission restores smooth shifting, performance, and precision handling without the high cost of a new unit. Our used transmissions are carefully sourced from low-mileage vehicles, inspected, and backed by warranty.

Whether you drive an Elise, Exige, Evora, or Emira, a tested used transmission restores factory performance and preserves Lotus’s lightweight, high-performance driving experience.

What Makes Our Used Lotus Transmissions Different?

A used Lotus transmission from a trusted supplier is thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure reliability and OEM fitment. Key inspection steps include:

• VIN verification for exact fitment
• Visual inspection for leaks, wear, or damage
• Fluid condition check and replacement
• Gear and clutch inspection
• Shift linkage testing (manual or automatic units)
• Manual clutch and synchro inspection
• Test shifting before shipment

This ensures your transmission is ready to install and will perform reliably.

Why Choose Used Over Remanufactured or New?

A used Lotus transmission is ideal for owners seeking OEM-level performance at a cost-effective price, especially for vehicles no longer under warranty.

Warranty & Certification You Can Rely On

All used Lotus transmissions include warranty coverage ranging from 30 days to 6 months, depending on model and mileage. Each unit also comes with:
