Reconditioned Volkswagen Golf 1.6 Petrol Gearbox

This reconditioned gearbox for the Volkswagen Golf 1.6 petrol, reference GVY, is a 5-speed manual unit compatible with engines BSE, BSF, BGU and CMXA, with an engine capacity of 1595 cm³. It lets you replace a worn-out gearbox without having to rely on a part of uncertain origin.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On a Golf fitted with this 5-speed manual gearbox, several warning signs point to advanced wear:

  • Increasingly stiff gear changes, particularly on second and fifth gear
  • Crunching or grinding when changing gear, even from cold
  • A gear jumping out or slipping into neutral whilst driving
  • Difficulty engaging reverse
  • A metallic background noise that grows louder with vehicle speed
  • Juddering felt when releasing the clutch

Reconditioned Gearbox: What It Means

This GVY gearbox is fully stripped down, cleaned and inspected component by component. Worn internal parts — including gears, synchros, bearings and seals — are replaced according to their condition. The gearbox is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch, ensuring performance in line with the original specification.

Exchange Basis: Delivered Before the Old Unit Is Collected

This GVY gearbox is reconditioned and dispatched in advance: it is delivered before the old gearbox is collected. The garage is therefore never left without a part, and the vehicle is not off the road whilst waiting. Collection of the old gearbox — with its casing intact — takes place after the reconditioned unit has been delivered and fitted. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

Reference GVY is compatible with Volkswagen Golf 1.6 petrol models fitted with engines BSE, BSF, BGU and CMXA.

Warranty and Payment

This gearbox comes with a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, in up to 10 instalments.

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