I though everybody with an MKIV had to replace their trannys :confused: I had 3 put in mine, and even under warranty they didn't want to replace it. They looked at my brand new suspension and new rims and tint and said it was abuse, before they even put it on the rack. I had to sue them to get a tranny and they still didn't get it right. Finally the 3rd time it blew up they got some big honcho from VW of Germany to come watch the guys replace all my shit, they took pictures, and engraved every peice that went into the car....funny how it hasn't even grinded a gear since ;)
I hope you don't have to experience what I did!
yeah, me too..........i want it done right once, i didnt pay over 20k for a peice of crap!!!
YAY!!! i need a new tranny and vw is covering it!!!!
