Hi all, well I put my 1997 MK3 2.0l 8v Gti up for sale on the forum a while ago and not long after that the reverse gear started making an unhappy noise which I assume is a broken tooth, and then last week the clutch gave up on me.
I have listed it back on the forum open to offers but if I can drop on a decent gearbox at the right money i'm tempted to just keep it and swap boxes and fit a new clutch.
I've been told that the Mk 2 box will fit, is that right? and if so what model specific boxes am I looking for?
There is a Mk 2 box up for sale that he says has been on a Mk3 block that had a mk 2 head on it, does that sound right?
I'm stranded now with no transport and if I am going to buy a box I don't want to get caught out with one that's not gonna fit!
