Re: [T3] rebuilt/exchanged torque converter pictures


I had heard somewhere that the core of the T3 tranny was in use up to
the Mk2 Golf/Jetta, and that the TC was interchangeable up to the same
Golf/Jetta. I could very well be wrong. I often am :)

If that's all true, it speaks to the longevity of the design of the
Auto. 25+ years!
