AKW","description":"\u003ch2\u003eReconditioned Volkswagen Golf 1.3 Gearbox – Reference AKW\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reconditioned gearbox is designed for the Volkswagen Golf 1.3 petrol, fitted with the MH, NZ or 2G engines, with an engine capacity of 1272 cm³, under reference AKW. It is a 4-speed manual gearbox, fully rebuilt before dispatch and sold on an exchange basis. The reconditioning follows a rigorous process: the gearbox is completely stripped down, every component is cleaned and inspected, and gears, synchros, bearings and seals are replaced as required, before the unit is fully reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and given a final bench test. This exacting standard ensures performance in line with the original specifications of reference AKW.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSigns That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a Golf 1.3 petrol, several symptoms should put the driver on alert: increasingly stiff gear changes, a crunching noise when selecting first or reverse, gears jumping out on their own whilst driving, a dull rumble or grinding noise in neutral, or excessive play in the gear lever. A clutch that slips for no apparent reason can also point to an internal gearbox fault. These signs generally indicate advanced wear and justify a full gearbox replacement rather than a one-off repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExchange Basis: No Waiting Around\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the exchange scheme, the reconditioned AKW gearbox is dispatched first, without waiting for the old unit to be returned. The garage is never left without a vehicle on the ramp during the job: the reconditioned gearbox is sent out to the customer straight away, and the old gearbox — 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reconditioned gearbox, reference AKW, is compatible with the Volkswagen Golf 1.3 petrol fitted with the MH, NZ and 2G engines, with an engine capacity of 1272 cm³. We recommend checking the reference against the original unit fitted to the vehicle before placing an order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty and Payment\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis AKW gearbox comes with a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, with up to 10 instalments available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEDEN BOITES is with you every step of the way, from your initial quote to the collection of your old unit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Volkswagen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42749413818453,"sku":"AKW_BV","price":958.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/9161\/5317\/files\/boite-de-vitesse-echange-standard-2-32_d6ff6194-8069-45b1-9e50-d75ddaa33b80.png?v=1784538821","url":"https:\/\/eden-boites.com\/en\/products\/reconditioned-volkswagen-golf-1-3-gearbox-akw","provider":"EDEN BOITES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
