Passat FHN/GGB Gearbox Compatibility with Audi FEC/GBQ

Post by grandmasterorge »

Hi All,

Apologies for starting a new topic but I've had a good search and can't find anything that confirms this.

Does anyone know whether the FEC/GBQ box from an Audi A4 is a straight fit for the FHN/GGB box in a Passat B5.5? The ratios are identical and both vehicles run an AWX engine, is there anything I'm missing? I saw an old post where Karl mentioned the FEC/GBQ are good boxes to look out for to fit the Passat but no confirmation of whether it's the same or needs extra mounts/work.

Need to know ASAP really as the garage currently have both box and car to work on tomorrow or Thursday and I don't want to leave them with a car on the ramp with the transmission out and not the right box to fit! I've supplied them with a GBQ box as it was the best one I could find locally.

Cheers,

George.
