    You can also use a stepped drill bit, put it in 4th gear, drill it big enough to remove the clip and pull the shifter out. Then enlarge the hole if needed

    @stephenhancock2974 28 днів тому

    Whoa Andy! After my venture into refurbishing my front and rear suspension that I was so happy with (and still am) I went out for a shake down cruise and lost all but 2nd gear. Local shops predicted a range of $400.00 to $4,000.00 US to repair/replace the transmission! Armed with my recent Andycharger confidence I said what the hell and decided to go for it myself. After a monumental search I located a firm that offered a bushing kit for everything from the engine bay to the shifter. The engine bay was CAKE but the shifter tree rebuild required drilling a 1 1/4" access window and an embarrassing number of tools whose names I won't drop! Trust me it was an ordeal just holding my breath while manipulating bushings on the shifter pins and slipping cable eyes over the bushings and then forcing the retainer clips on . One poor move and retrieving those parts through that 1 1/4" access window and it would have been back to the drawing board for plan "B"! Well "SUCCESS" on the parts installation and on to the gear alignment process which sounded harrowing but turned out to be a breeze. Shakedown cruise was a complete and I took the time to tune in the adjustments which now has the shifting working tighter and smoother than before! Still Andrew, you get the credit because without gaining the confidence from you videos I would never have taken this on, THANKS! *Credit goes out to DieselGeeks as well. The Deluxe kit for the Audi TT MK1 was dead on. I know one comment was an upset statement about the cost of the it but the cost of your parts package was a fraction of what a shop would have cost me for this refurbishment, so THANKS!

    Just put this in my 2014 TDI. HUUUGE difference in performance. I regularly do my oil changes, filters, and the timing belt. Couldn’t not figure out why I had hesitation going from idle to 2nd gear. Dealerships kept saying nothing was wrong. Glad this little addition solved the issue before it turned into a p2015.

  • @KevinMcDevitt-ks5ve

    I have seen multiple recommendations for your kits and videos. Was wondering if you could answer a few questions for me, as I see the kits a bit cheaper elsewhere but am willing to pay a little more for 'good support'. 2013 Jetta 2.0 TDI Sportwagen with just over 130k miles on it. No issues with engine performacne, everything runs smooth and tight. Bought it from a dealership at 108k miles through the Volkswagen buyback program after the TDI 'fix'. Not knowing whether the belt has been replaced before so it is definitely time. I have replaced a timing chain, multiple water pumps, and even replaced a head gasket on a car before including all new valves (had a timing chain break in a Grand Am but got lucky to not have engine damage). Having moderate mechanical skills, but in not a mechanic. Is this something I can tackle in my own garage? What would you estimate for the amount of time required? Just some questions I have before I commit to the repair, or decide to take it to our local VW certified garage. Before I go all in, is this a job that can be done without a lift and do I need any specialty tools? If so do you have a link to a tool kit for it? Not looking for Snap On quality, just something sufficient to do it a few times without crumbling.

    • @dieselgeekdotcom
      @dieselgeekdotcom Місяць тому

      Hi Kevin - It sounds like you have more than enough wrenching experience to get this done. Generally if you know righty-tighty lefty-loosey, can/will follow instruction, have a jack, stands, and decent set of hand tools this won't be a problem. We cover all the necessary tools you'll need right at the beginning of the video and you get access moments after you order your kit. That allows you to pick up anything you're short on before taking your car apart. Most importantly if you get stuck you can always email or (gasp) call us if you run into a snag. Regarding specialty tools: You'll need the set we offer here: dieselgeek.com/collections/vw-tdi-timing-belt-kits/products/metalnerd-vw-common-rail-timing-belt-tool-kit Also an M10 triple square dieselgeek.com/collections/vw-tdi-timing-belt-kits/products/m10-triple-square-socket-for-common-rail-timing-belt-job And if you don't have a bunch of hose pinch pliers the cap plug set is a good idea. dieselgeek.com/collections/vw-tdi-timing-belt-kits/products/cap-plug-set-for-timing-belt-job

    Trying to find info on the reverse lockout mechanism for this shifter. I can go into reverse without pushing down so its easy to mistakenly enter 1st/reverse gears. Is this solved by taking out slop or is there a physical reverse lockout bushing/bracket part that I need to confirm is not damaged?

    • @dieselgeekdotcom
      @dieselgeekdotcom 2 місяці тому

      Lack of reverse lockout is usually a maladjusted side to side cable or bushing slop precluding a good adjustment.

    My car all of a sudden won’t shift in to reverse. It’s as if something is holding it from slipping forward into the reverse gear. This is true at the gear stick and also when I try to manually select it at the gearbox it self. Any ideas? Is it internally in the gearbox itself or a shift mechanism issue?

    • @dieselgeekdotcom
      @dieselgeekdotcom 2 місяці тому

      You won't be able to shift into reverse from the selector shaft in the engine compartment with the cables connected because from there you have no way to overcome the reverse lockout in the cabin. We may be able to supply more specific information if you email us directly. Sales @ dieselgeek.com.

    There is a rubber or plastic grommet that deformed at the base of my stick shifter, and it would not allow the shift to come back up. I could have shaved it down but I opted for a new shifter along with your kit. Shits solid now. I just uploaded my video a few minutes ago.

    What size is the snap ring? Mine did its job and snapped off the pliers, then went Mach 1 into the seat rails somewhere.

    Can you give a link to buy these tools to remove and install the cam seals. I’m struggling to locate them and same with cam holding tool to torque the cam down. I looked on your site and didn’t see anything. I need some help please.

      This was not meant to be a comprehensive how-to. Generally there are 3 types of seals and we wanted to educate regarding best install practices. Replacement procedure and requisite tools are very much application specific. We recommend purchasing a 24 hour Erwin subscription for the very reasonable price $35. (vw.erwin.com) In that time you can download EVERYTHING for your car. The real-deal specialty VW tools are available to the public from vw.snapon.com.

    Do you have a video for the shifter for a 99-05 Audi TT?

      MK1 TT is the same as MK4 except without serviceable shift bushings.
