Galaxy Mk1 1.9 Tdi Gearbox Issue

[Michael_H]

Galaxy 1.9 TDi, 1998 AUTO. I am sticking to it as I have spent so much money on it that I am not ready to admit defeat. Problem I am having is with the gearbox since I have purchased the vehicle. History: rebuilt the box - not working well; replaced new ecu - working better but still not right - replaced wiring asembly - better still but still not right. Now what we have still is sudden change from 1st to 2nd, especially when cold and when pressing down the accelerator. Also, from 3rd to 4th when going uphill for instance and accelerating slightly, it will shake and rattle the whole dashboard unless I push harder or manually stick to the 3 selector. Gearbox had been reinstpected by the garage that reconditioned it, taken down and apart, and they assured me all the parts are 100%. Do I give up?

hello

this could be a difficult one, if the garage concerned did the diag work and then did the work on the box, then they have not fulfilled their contract,

give it back to the garage to repair correctly, if you get no joy get yourself an independant engineer to liase with the garage, they do not cost a lot but it is money well spent,
