Quick gearbox question for vr6...
« on: 11 March 2011, 23:06 »
Hi chaps

Gear box has gone in my 96 N plate vr6 vento 2.8... I was wondering will all vr6 gear boxes be the same ? Ebay seams to be full of vr6 gear boxes for mk3 golfs and i was wondering will a mk3 box fit my vento..

I would say yes but i dont wanna waste £200 on a duffer that wont fit lol...

Cheers in advance guys.  :wink:

Pretty sure all Golf VR's are the same, all the same engine code anyway, even if obd1 or 2 so should be ok mate.

Both the same AAA engine code for the 2.8 and ABV if it is a 2.9.

Golf / vento swap all ok.
