Hi I've got to remove the gearbox on my 1.9 tdi Mk2 and have looked in my usual tools and cannot find the right tool to remove the gearbox bellhousing bolts and wondered if anyone knew the right size and description.

 

 

Many thanks

Hi I thought I would answer this incase it helps someone else, I've got one of those kits which includes allen, torque and multi spline bits in two lenghts and includes 3/8 and 1/2 inch sockets to use them (anyone who has one of these kits will know what I'm on about).

The multispline bits go up to 12mm but guess what they are 14mm on the bell housing!

A trip to a local garage equipment store (no not Hafords a proper one for garages) resulted in purchasing a twin pack which were listed for Ford bell housings.

I've looked on fleabay and this link shows the same:

Hopefully someone will be saved from the last minute OH SH"T moment I had when I went to start!

 

Best wishes
