Well i have been taking my gearbox out over the last few days little bit at a time.

I have took the passenger side driveshaft off and today I went to take the drivers side one off and realised the previous owner has rounded one of the bolt that connect the drive shaft to the gearbox.

Does anyone ...

i will try the piece of wood

Unfortunalty i dont have access to an engine crane and the engine only needs to be held up for a short time due to putting a new gearbox on right after taking old one off

Ok well i am going to finish removing my gearbox on my mk4 16v tomorrow but i need to hold the engine up.

There is a point on the sump but i am sure you shouldnt put the trolley jack there does anyone have an idea where a good place to put the jack to hold the engine up while the gearbox is off.

thanks plans for a car pc and need to know when i will HAVE to switch it off so i aint walking home hehe

Is there anything that i can get to mount in my dash or glovebox that can tell me how much power i have left in my battery?

These are old and have had a few changes like

Smoked Indicators to match headlights
Black Rear VW badge
Color Coded Splitter
Removed Mudflaps
Delocked Handles
Debadged Rear

well i am removing my gearbox out my 6n 16v but i cant take all the engine out.

So i am unboltting and dropping it from underneath from the looks of it i will have to undo the passenger side engine mount, so am I gonna have to hold the engine up somehow like with a trolley jack.

If this is correct ...

abit of a list

I can only comment on the gearbox which i ahve just had to buy for my 1.4 16v and that cost me £468 to get a new one build for me.

But i am sure you might be able to pick one up from a scrappy aswell as the other parts.

Hope it helps
