Mk2 golf Gti gearbox
« on: 13 November 2008, 09:24 »
A few years back my gearbox failed and had it replaced,but since then it doesnt go as fast ie the revs in the gear are shorter?

i asked the garage who changed it if it was a origional gti gearbox thery changed it wirth and they said yes.

how can i check if it is a gti or not just a 5 speed driver etc.


thanks

hmm i wonder if you have a 16v box, did they put a new clutch on it too?  best thing to do is check the box code though really!
