Need to buy parts for this project? In this article, I'll go over the steps involved with removing the transmission from the Mk4 Jetta 2.0. Removing the transmission is required for certain jobs, including changing the clutch and also the flywheel. This article is written assuming that you have already performed all the prior work to be able to remove the transmission, such as removing the axles, battery, etc.
I highly recommend studying our technical library on the Mk4 Jetta before beginning this job. As always, safety first, be sure to disconnect the battery and have the car secured in the air on jack stands.
See the following articles for more information: Jacking Up Your Mk4 Jetta; Mass Airflow Sensor Replacement; Battery Replacement; Battery Box Removal; Starter Removal; Air Filter Housing Removal; Front Subframe Removal; Axle Replacement. Comments and Suggestions: Vwwolfsburg Comments: So my 03 vdub wolfburg while driving to the house the other day my CV axel blew out, found a place who said he would do it for $60,so I had it towed. When the guy gets the car apart all of a sudden it needs 220.00 more labor and a new hub,tie rod and wheel bearing. I go buy all the stuff he fixed t.he car. I get in and didn't even make it a mile down the road,came to a stop sign and my car won't move. It goes into first,and reverse but won't move,even in natural it won't move.
I finally got it to back up and all the transactions fluid drains out, I have it towed back to shop. The guy swears it's not due to him. The tranny and everything else was fine before he touched my car. I spoke to 3 vw service shops they all said the same thing,he didn't mount the axle right. Is this possible? Is he at fault?
I have another transmission I will install. What should I upgrade or what needs to be replaced i.e. Hoses,belts,or gaskets. June 27, 2018 Followup from the Pelican Staff: No clue. I can;t really comment without seeing it myself. If a shop can explain why it failed, I would er on their side of judgement.
Nick at Pelican Parts Justin Comments: I have a 2001 gls vw jetta, and the trans is going out. I found a 2004 Jetta same motor and same trans code fdf.
Would it match up and fit properly? April 30, 2018 Followup from the Pelican Staff: If engine code is same, it should.
Nick at Pelican Parts Adam Comments: So I have a '99 Jetta with the 2.0L motor code is AEG with a 5 speed manual transmission. It has seen 212k miles and is getting a little tired. I want to put a 6 speed manual into it. Is there a compatible transmission to do this? A trans out of a gti or something like that? Thanks for your time.
April 18, 2018 Followup from the Pelican Staff: I am not 100% sure what will go into it. Might have to call a local VW shop to see if they have advice. Nick at Pelican Parts Tom Comments: Hey Michael is my brother's name haha I got a mk4 Jetta for 300 spent about 250300 on clutch components and other small parts about to have her driving in the next couple days April 3, 2018 Followup from the Pelican Staff: Cool, thanks for sharing.
Nick at Pelican Parts Michael Comments: Should I buy a mk4 Jetta that needs a tranny? I have the tools and knowledge to replace the bad one. Just want to know if it is worth the money to move the car. October 20, 2017 Followup from the Pelican Staff: Sure. If the rest of the vehicle is solid and you get a good deal. Nick at Pelican Parts.
