URGENT HELP Required! Polo GTi Gearbox Issues

Post by Josh_PoloGTi »

Hi All

Calling anyone with a Polo GTi!

Have you had gearbox problems?

I know of a few other people that have their gearboxes replaced under warranty...

Mine is in for a new gearbox at the moment, but they are trying to blame the damage on my B&M Sport Shifter!

I need to know who else has had gearbox problems on their GTi so I can go back to the dealers with some "ammo".

Thanks everyone!

Hey 2K,

Thanks for that link... Makes very interesting reading.

I don't get any grinding noise when I shift, and I don't properly "speed shift" even with the short shifter installed (unless I'm ragging it :wink: )

Thanks again
