isk Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 Hi everyone It looks like my gearbox is on it's way out :( (2nd and 3rd are slipping and I get this awful shudder), so I was wondering if anyone knows if this kind can be repaired at all or what other options I've got (if any). The engine is VWs 1.9 TDi 115bhp AUY , Ford could only tell me that the gearbox type is AG-5, but people from VW don't know what it means - obviously the box is VW but what do they call it ? Any help greatly appreciated! Quote

isk Posted October 14, 2006 Author Report Posted October 14, 2006 Thanks for that guys! If you've ever heard of anyone repairing these for reasonable money - a replacement costs 3k+ (and that's remanufactured, whatever this means)... Quote
Guest HairyPlateEater Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 Only gearbox work I've ever had done was at Black Diamond and that was under 3rd party waranty on a Fiat! They only have a few locations though so depends if you are nearby any of them. Recon gearbox for a 1.6 Marea along with new clutch was around Quote
