Reconditioned Audi A1 1.6 TDI Gearbox – Reference MDN

This reconditioned gearbox for the Audi A1 1.6 TDI (engine codes CAYB, CAYC, engine capacity 1598 cm³) is available under reference MDN. The reconditioning process involves a full strip-down of the gearbox, thorough cleaning and inspection of every internal component, replacement of all wear parts such as gears, synchros, bearings and seals, followed by reassembly to manufacturer tolerances and a bench test prior to dispatch.

Signs that your manual gearbox needs replacing

On an Audi A1 fitted with this 5-speed manual gearbox, several warning signs should alert the driver: increasingly stiff gear changes, a crunching noise when downshifting into second or third, a gear jumping out on its own whilst driving, unusual vibrations in neutral, or a persistent metallic noise with the clutch pedal depressed. These symptoms indicate advanced internal wear and justify replacement with a reconditioned MDN gearbox.

Exchange basis: immediate delivery, deferred return

This gearbox is sold on an exchange basis, meaning it is rebuilt to 0 km before dispatch. The reconditioned unit is sent to the garage first, so the garage is never left without a gearbox and the vehicle is not off the road. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected after the new unit has been delivered and fitted. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

Reference MDN covers 1.6 TDI engines fitted with engine codes CAYB and CAYC, as mounted in the Audi A1. Before ordering, we recommend checking the exact engine code shown on the vehicle's identification plate to confirm compatibility with this MDN gearbox.

Warranty and payment

This reconditioned gearbox is covered by a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Your order can be spread over several instalments – pay in up to 10 instalments – to make your purchase more manageable.

EDEN BOITES supports you every step of the way, from your initial quote through to collection of the old unit.
