Help with gearbox
« on: February 20, 2021, 07:40:08 pm »
Hi all,

The transmission bolt snapped and I have a crack on the gearbox casing so am trying to source one. I will consider a refurbed one if possible.

The gearbox code is KQD - forgive my ignorance but is there another varient that will fit as I did find a GVT refurb? It's for a 2008 mk5 GTI engine BWA

Apologies for sounding like I need my hand holding but I kinda do lol; any advice on where to source one as I just can't tell on ebay what to really look for apart from a decent warranty and feedback etc.

Cheers!

Is it a manual car or DSG ? If its manual then another 6 speed 02Q box will fit. If its DSG then its a bit more tricky.

Sorry should have probably mentioned that, it is indeed a manual
