Gear lever repair kit

Hi, been searching but can't find an answer

6N2 1.4, sloppy gear lever, I'm sure its bushes that have perished, is there a repair kit available or a guide somewhere?

6N2 parts wanted

We're after the following

floor mats, prefer OEM if possible

And we're looking for a drivers seat with this trim or the trim as the seat is fine!

We're in Cambridge if that helps or is an issue.

Thank you

Re: cooling issue

yes, found the receipt, Vindis VW. Supplied Sept 2018, fitted a week later and the part number matches up OK but looking at the flange/bridge etc that doesn't appear to have a part number and thats the part that has caused the issue I think.

Re: cooling issue

flushed it again and runs clear however we took the stat out. OMG talk about ruined, the bridge has failed and the stat has fallen apart so new parts ordered from vw for fitting later today. The original would not be letting anything through in a hurry.

cooling issue

Separate thread for my cars issue, and its no doubt been covered before 6n2 GTi issue is: Bought it as a car that had suffered an overheat a few months ago, we inherited a damaged header tank (looks to have been butchered) and very little coolant, apparently the car was left standing for 30mins tick...

Re: 6n2 GTI, replacement parts question

thanks again, couldn't locate the fan control unit so will check again when the heat drops down later today. I take it the control unit is accessed from under the arch as we couldn't see anything beneath the battery but we'll trace the cables. I'll post some pictures up when we've got it roadworthy ...

Re: 6n2 GTI, replacement parts question

Nice many thanks, that link will prove valuable I think. I agree with your comments though on parts and diagnoses etc, but so far the fan runs at one speed but not the other, I took that off and hooked it up to a battery and it ran on the low speed but the fast speed is a no go.

6n2 GTI, replacement parts question
