Fox 1980-1990 cannot change gears

Post by shasha9876 »

Hi all

I have a fox that i cannot change gears even when off. It does not seem to the be linkages or the clutch.

Does anyone know of a vw gearbox specialist in the johannesburg east area.

Regards

I would have referred you to Erlemann's, who used to be the preferred (and I think, factory-designated) specialist for repairing VW/Audi boxes. But apparently they have closed down.

did you try selecting any gears on the box directly, if it selects there then most likely a linkage issue
