Since I bought my car (b4 Passat 1Z) it is sometimes (when warm usually) difficult to shift into
1st gear (no grinding however) and sometimes when shifting to 2nd grinds (only at high rpms -
2700+) but engages with no opposition (in 2nd).
Question1: Ofcourse it is probably the syncro wearing out but could changing the oil help at all?
Or is it just different things?
Question2: Is it true that 2nd and 1st gear share a common syncro?
TIA!,
