CHD","description":"\u003ch2\u003eReconditioned Volkswagen Golf 1.8 Gearbox – Reference CHD\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reconditioned gearbox is designed for Volkswagen Golf models fitted with the 1.8 petrol engine (1781 cm³), compatible with engine codes AGN and AGU, and corresponds to reference CHD. The reconditioning process involves a full strip-down of the gearbox, followed by thorough cleaning and careful inspection of every component. Internal wear parts – including gears, synchros, bearings and seals – are replaced as required. The gearbox is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch, ensuring performance that meets original factory standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSigns That Your Manual Gearbox Needs Replacing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeveral warning signs point to advanced wear in the 5-speed manual gearbox of the Golf 1.8: increasingly stiff gear changes, crunching when downshifting, a gear jumping out on its own whilst driving, difficulty engaging first gear or reverse when cold, unusual vibrations in neutral, or a persistent metallic noise under acceleration. These symptoms typically indicate internal wear of the synchros or bearings and warrant a full gearbox replacement rather than a partial and uncertain repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExchange Basis: How It Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis gearbox is sold on an exchange basis. The reconditioned unit is dispatched first, allowing the garage to carry out the installation without delay and without leaving the vehicle off the road. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected after the reconditioned unit has been delivered and fitted. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, in order to complete the exchange under the agreed conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reconditioned gearbox, reference CHD, is compatible with Volkswagen Golf models fitted with the 1.8 petrol engine (1781 cm³) bearing engine codes AGN and AGU. We recommend verifying that reference CHD matches the reference of the original gearbox fitted to your vehicle before placing an order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty and Payment\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reconditioned gearbox is covered by a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional.
