Hey guys
Thanks for checking out my thread. I need to replace the clutch (slipping) in my 2003 passat TDI (engine AWX gearbox FHN) and have noticed the gear shifter moving as I accelerate/decelerate (worst in second).
I had a test drive with my local gearbox specialist and he said that it indicated some thing loose in the gearbox, and that the gearbox would need to be stripped and components replaced to fix it. I'm always cautious believing people who want to sell me a service so I thought I'd post the video on the VW forums to see if what I'm being told is true. The gearbox needs to come off to replace a couple of seals any way, the technician wants £240 (inc vat) + parts for stripping the gearbox and replacing parts.
Please check out the video and let me know what you think:
