EQ6 stripped gears

Hi all,

2013 is shaping up to be an interesting year.

I have an older black version of the EQ6, while always been somewhat noisy on the initial wind up while slewing; I've never had any problems.

Last night I was slewing to Jupiter and there was a nasty teeth grinding noise.
The mount seems to have stripped some teeth.

Everything was balanced in the setup.

My question is whether anyone knows where I can get it repaired.
Locally in Adelaide would be preferred but if I have to courier it then so be it.

Any recommendations for upgrades on the mount while I'm at it?

Happy new year everybody.

Thanks.

Ryan.
