Title: Gearbox problem . .
Post by: Mikemk4 on 18 June 2010, 15:07

my cars in the garage today to have a gearbox . . its a mk4 Golf 1.8T 5speed ( agu )

I was sold a gearbox yesturday by the local scrappy and they insisted it came off the same car and would fit . .

Yep you guessed it, it doesnt!! . . i had the garage just ring and say the selector on the top is smaller and held in by some sort of ball joint which my old one hasnt got, and it has an electrical connection on top and mine doesnt, he said he doesnt know if you can change selectors over because it looks like you cant . .

Any help guys, thanks . . .

i'm currently reconing my box off an aum engine code, if you decided to get rid of the box that doesnt fit i might be interested depending on price and your location.

Hainford hall mate . . to be fair it does look the same and they said it came from a golf 1.8T and it does say 02J on it, but the selector is smaller and instead of bein bolted on its kinda riveted on, ive took some pics ill upload them in a minute . .
