RE: cost of used tranny – looks like that’s pretty hight to me also – did
that nclude labor? Suggest you E-mail the Parts Place at –
partspl…@aol.com
- and ask them – they sell new, rebuilt, and "used but good" trannys – no
costs listed in their catalog, except to say they have "hundreds" in
stock.

Re: Need help locating an 85 diesel jetta tranny
I have lost 5th gear. Now that I have the tranny apart the splines between the
5th gear and pinion shaft are stripped. The VW dealer wants:
$160 for the 5th gear
$280 for the shaft
$ 80 for a tranny gasket kit
This sounds a bit high. But I am unable to locate another used tranny (model
ACH) in my area. Other salvage yards are asking $500 to $600 for one with
comparable milage.
My tranny now at 170k and must have been leaking, there was not much oil left
inside.
Any advice or help locating a tranny for my 85 diesel jetta would be
appreciated.
Thanks to those who responded to my first post.
