Hi,
I have a mk3 jetta tdi and i just put in a VR6 clutch and pp with a ton of other front end suspension and axle stuff. I have got the shift linkage as dialed in as i can get it (I think), but the gearbox still grinds when i put it in reverse. this can be remedied by putting in the clutch, put it in second then first gear, then put it in reverse, then there is only a mild clunk and no grinding. Is this because i have not gotten the shift linkage perfectly in tune, or has the reverse synchro died?
Thanks
