Greetings from the land of Oz. I have a 72 Notch auto wihich has suddenly dropped its reverse gear. Appears to engage but nothing happens. All forward gears are OK, but a real nuisance having to push it out the driveway. Apart from "specialist" VW backyard mechanics wanting me to part with $500 (that's Australian dollars) upwards to supply them with the gearbox for an overhaul. Does any one have any simple solution to the problem? Parts are hard to come by for AT, plenty of reconditioned manual trans around, I have contemplated a manual conversion is this possible????? Any ideas, solutions or suggestions graciuosly received. Vic
