Re: [T3] tranny problems


Thanks to all who have posted their advice. The tranny fluid was
replaced at the dealer since I don't have the appropriate hoses to reach
the fill hole. I assume they used VW spec fluid. The mechanic there is
an old German, a Type III fan himself.

The popping out of third seems to haD,戴an isolated incident, but it
still won't stay in fourth. Being a transmission-work virgin myself (and
not having the equipment to do the work properly) I'll be taking it to
my trusty repair shop. I just wanted some second opinions before laying
out my hard-earned cash.

While I'm at it, has anyone here ever rebuilt a speedometer? My present
one snapped one cable  and tried to snap the replacement I bought until
I hastily disconnected it. I'd be interested to find out if this is a
do-able job lest I pull the cover and be showered with springs and gears....


Thanks everyone,
