Reconditioned Audi A3 1.6 TDI Gearbox – Reference PTU

This reconditioned gearbox for the Audi A3 1.6 TDI (1598 cm³), reference PTU, restores the 6-speed manual transmission of your vehicle to its original reliability. It is aimed at owners dealing with a worn, noisy or difficult-to-use gearbox in everyday driving. Designed to replace a tired unit without any compromise on quality, this PTU reference brings back smooth gear changes and quiet operation.

Signs that your gearbox needs replacing

Several warning signs should alert the driver of an Audi A3 1.6 TDI before the problem gets worse:

  • Stiff gear changes or crunching when changing gear;
  • Juddering or jerking felt when engaging the clutch;
  • Abnormal vibrations transmitted through the gear lever;
  • Metallic noises, grinding or whistling while driving;
  • Difficulty engaging reverse or a specific gear;
  • Gearbox oil leak visible beneath the vehicle.

Exchange basis: your reconditioned gearbox delivered without delay

This gearbox is fully stripped down, cleaned and inspected component by component. Any gears, synchros, bearings and seals showing signs of wear are systematically replaced, before reassembly to manufacturer specifications and a final bench test. This PTU reference therefore meets the requirements of a mechanically restored transmission, ready to get back on the road in near-new condition.

With the exchange arrangement, the reconditioned gearbox is dispatched first, without waiting for the old unit to be collected: your garage is never left without a solution and the vehicle does not remain immobilised on the ramp. The old gearbox, with its casing or block intact, is only collected after delivery and fitting of the new unit. Its return is nonetheless required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

This gearbox, reference PTU, is compatible with Audi A3 1.6 TDI vehicles fitted with the CAYC, CLHA and CRKB engines. Before placing an order, we recommend verifying the exact match against the details on your vehicle registration document.

Warranty and payment

This reconditioned gearbox comes with a 24-month parts warranty, valid subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Payment for your order can be spread over several instalments, in up to 10 instalments, to help you manage your budget.

EDEN BOITES supports you from quote through to collection of the old unit.
