Title: Thinking of getting a salvaged gear box for my mk4
Post by: rikmayall on 18 March 2011, 22:40

Is there a difference in a 2001 mk4 1.4 gearbox and a 1999 1.9 TDi gearbox?

Also, my alternator went, it's in getting fixed - how much should I be paying for reconditioning of it including all labour? Should I try getting a salvaged one instead?

The gearbox I am sure will not fit plus all the ratios are wrong.

what? do you think a 1.4 gearbox will fit? i know, a gearbox from a metro turbo will fit mate  :wink: with a bit of modifying

Nope, true the gearbox won't fit, bit of a complete noob to all this stuff, just enquiring.
