Hi everyone. Ive been searching & reading for hours through all the swap threads I can find.
So here's my story. I wrecked my '04 BEW/Tiptronic beetle this past Monday. Absolutely breaks my heart. I've since sourced a '99 2.0 gas/5 speed beetle with a bad engine. Ideally, I would like to swap my BEW into the '99 using the manual trans. I'm hoping that someone here has done this swap, and might be willing to help guide me along & share some info.
I've noticed gas transmissions need a gear change to work well with tdi. Where can I source these swap parts?
