Please Help !!

Post by HK 6N2 »

Dear all Polo driver,

Last week, I have changed the Redline Manual Transmission Lubricants,
I don't know what grade of the oils the car-shop changed for me.
After changed this Transmission Lubricants, my car become hard shifting,
especially in 4th gear!

Please tell me what Manual Transmission Lubricants should I use in my Polo GTI, and also how much oils should use??

Please help!! :cry:

They might have over-filled it. This can cause the symptoms you're talking about. Stand car on the level, and leave till car is cold, maybe overnight. Take out the refill plug (not drain plug). Let the excess oil drain out. If this doesn't work, then best to go to a VW Dealer and ask them what Oil they use and put in the same. Or, you could also use Molyslip additive to ensure the gears glide more easily. Hope this helps.
