Need FHN/GGB 012 transmission parts(synchros and seals as far as I know). Any one know who might have these in US or in Europe but will ship?
I'm on my second manual transmission for a passat wagon and I really like the car when it works. First trans was a swap kit from Franz with a FHN and i popped it in loaded it up with synthetic valvoline gear oil and the synchros went after 25k(the valeo clutch also slipped). got a GGB and it is now going bad on downshift from 3rd to 2nd gear after 13k miles with Redline MTL trans oil.
Neither shifted well from 1st to 2nd to start but still surprised how quickly they have crapped out.
