Re: What gearboxes fit the 6N2 16v?

Update: I've identified the engine as an "AUA", and the gearbox as an "ETD"; a 5-gear manual transmission that was in VW Polo and Lupo between 99-01, and also in Seat Arosa between 99-00.

What gearboxes fit the 6N2 16v?

I have a 2001 6N2 16v (1.4 litre, 75 hp), and now I've blown my gearbox. :cry: I'm looking for a replacement through online parts dealers, but getting the weirdest hits; I get suggestions for boxes as old as from 1996, but as far as I know, that was the (similar looking) previous incarnation of the ...

Now it won't play C...

Hey all! New user here - I apologize if I've posted this in the wrong section. I have a 2001 6N2 (16v), and I've grown tired of getting robbed each time something in it needs fixing. Not long ago I had to fork out a small fortune just to get the hand break wires replaced. I've decided to order a ser...
