Hi all..

My AUDI A2 1.4 TDI 75 Gear Selector Lever on top of the gear box is wobbly with the shaft is this fixable? or new gearbox? Any advice welcome
 
Thanks for the responce.

Did you do yours yourself?
If So is it difficult to do your self?
And finally do you know the part needed?

Thanks again
 
Yes I did it myself. The part needed depends on how far gone the tower is. A bush and a seal may be all it requires, about £20. However it could be a mess and then you need a new Tower (or a good used one). Your gearbox may have water in it so you would then need a couple of litres of gear oil. The job is easy by A2 standards.

If you change the tower yes you change the VW thing. If you change the seals you keep the old one.

Thank you, but A2 days going really badly at the moment. Car getting close to the thrashing with a branch treatment.
 
Good morning fellow A2ers
Is gearbox tower shaft the proper name
Because I can't find a replacement or a bearing rebuild kit?
