1998 1.6 Auto Polo Won't change into 4th Gear!

Post by bigalblobby1 »

My 1998 Polo is very jerky when changing gear up and down but also it won't go into 4th gear!

Any suggestions?

Cheers

No I haven't, I thought it was factory sealed? It's only done 67k miles

No, it's changeable

I would suggest a change of gearbox oil first off
