    Gear change slop

    ip im just a little confused here you quote the relay driver as part no(1H0711202A) and the driver (1J0711256). but when i used vag cat the relay driver shows as part 1J0711256 and the driver as 1H0711188B and the part no 1H0711202A shows up as a nut square can you please check this out when you get some time and just help meto clear things out thanx for your help
  2. does anyone have any experiance with this item? i am considering buying this for my vr to help get rid o the gearbox slop i am currently experiancing (ever since my slave and master cyliners let go and got replaced i have gained excess gearchange slop) and also making the shift a bit sportier (i hate long throws generally and the vr isnt exactly a short shift in the first place) i understand it replaces the weak plastic original part which develps slack after time so im thinking is this the reason why i have lost precision in comparison to before can anyone tell me does it fir on the gearbox s
  3. i think i may give this a go too the arb work went well... the front was going well untill it came to getting the bushes in for the new one. one of the bushes went in nicely, but the second one just would not want to go in under the retaining clip. the rear wasnt bad either, i found the clamps supllied were just a little short of making the job easy, but some swearing soon cured that. also found that i had to drop the dampers to get the lower bolts (on the suspension arm) to clear the exhaust and fuel tank, so whilst i was there i changed the rear top mounts
  4. lol mixed opinions here ...i like the sound of 90 mins though any more opinions or advice on here
  5. i put out a post the other day on another section and i wa so pleased with the response that i thought i would put out another my rear engine mount is leaking, so it needs changing, the others arent exactly mint either so i thought whilst its getting done i should look at replacing the others what i want to know weather this is a job i can do on my drive with a friend or does it need to be left at the garage ...so id appreciate if someone experianced could make a step by step step on how to go about changing all 3 thanx in advance for any help
  6. can someone experianced please run me through a step by step guide on how to change my front top mounts also a parts list would be good - i will be ordering the parts from vw so ekta codes would be top! i know i obviously need the rubber top mounts, but which bearing bits etc do i need thanx in advance
