Hi my 2000 Golf has 580,000km on the original manual transmission. Been having more and more trouble shifting lately. Can anyone recommend a good rebuild kit? Especially tough to get into first gear.
Agreed, change your tranny fluid. However I have always stuck with OEM G050 fluid and never had a problem. Heard good things about Penzoil Synchromesh though.
Will change the fluid for sure guys. I think I did it once only! I think I will do the bushings to. They are definitely worn. Thanks for the link to the complete bushing set.
If you pull the shift boot up you can see one bushing, driver's side, it's where the first gear getter goes, that'll give you an idea what the rest look like
