Thanks Monkey. Only thing is sourcing every last bit to suit that setup. Like I’d need clutch, flywheel, hydro slave cylinder, pedal to match…. The list is probably massive and finding these bits now is double hard and double £££.
Might be better off buying another 020 and get it fully forged 😂
Evening all. Just took the Golf out for a spin to collect the Chinese take away and when I pulled away at the traffic lights I heard a god awful racket from under the car and then some loud whining, a slipping clutch and the lovely smell of gear oil. So I pulled over sharpish and had a look….yes the dreaded ‘gearbox has S##T itself’ nice puddle of oil forming on the road (probably the diff- haven’t had a proper look yet). I pulled off gently too so I’m shocked this happened but hey that’s life.
My mk2 is running an AUQ with the 020 gearbox.
QUESTION 1 Do I just fit another 020 box and just wait for this to happen again
or
Question 2 Does anyone have a full 02a or 02j setup I can buy please
