ok last night my car stopped going after going over a bumpy bit of road, it just stoppe dmoving, u can start it and go into gears ect anbd accelerate but it doesnt go anywhere and u could hear somit like drive shaft spinning, so as far as i can tell the drive shaft popped out, now the garage are saying they think its the gearbox! hmm is this possible? gearbox had no reason to go, wasnt changing gear when it happend, and you can still get into all gears but it doesnt move altho u can hear shat or sumit turning, the gearbox has always been fine, no probs, ?? they trying to rip me?

take old dif out (in piecces if shagged) clean up, fit new one..
if not, depends what car, anything between £20-£150 depending on where ya go. might be a few on here with a box to fit
