Title: VR6 Gear Box
Post by: Dmonday on 08 January 2011, 20:20
Just about to go whip the VR gearbox & Clutch off in a second, just wondering if it's as straight forward as unbolting everything i see? should i be aware of anything? (engine's out of the car)

Yep just unbolts, sometimes better to pull the clutch arm to force it apart.

Thanks Wayne :) just pryed (sp?) it apart with a chisel and it popped off, would of helped if i remembered to take the engine off the hoist first :D

Try doing the job with it still in the car, it comes out, but getting it back in...  :grin:
