Reconditioned Volkswagen Golf 1.8 Gearbox – 5-Speed Manual – Ref. ACD

Reconditioned Volkswagen Golf 1.8 Petrol Gearbox

This reconditioned gearbox for the Volkswagen Golf 1.8 petrol, reference ACD, is compatible with vehicles fitted with the AGN and AGU engines, with an engine capacity of 1781 cm³. It is a 5-speed manual gearbox, fully overhauled to a rigorous process before being returned to service. On the Golf fitted with the 1.8 petrol, this gearbox transfers engine power to the wheels across five ratios — a mechanism that comes under particular strain during urban driving with frequent gear changes.

Reconditioning follows four precise stages: complete disassembly of the gearbox, thorough cleaning and inspection of every component, replacement of internal wear parts such as gears, synchros, bearings and seals, then reassembly to manufacturer tolerances followed by a bench test before dispatch.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

• Difficult or stiff gear changes, particularly into second
• Crunching or grinding when changing gear
• Jumping out of gear while driving, especially under acceleration
• Vibrations or abnormal noise in neutral
• Gear lever that judders or sticks

Compatibility

Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.
