Re: GEAR BOX AND CLUTCH FAILURE
Bloody hell....... 500 just to strip. You could get a diff installed for that.
Find out what your Gearbox code is and see if you can get a reconditioned one. I dont think id take it to dealers for a job like this though. Independent vw garage would be less harsh on your wallet
