Reconditioned Volkswagen Polo 1.2 12V Gearbox – Ref. GKU

This Volkswagen Polo 1.2 12V gearbox, reference GKU, has been fully reconditioned to restore factory performance. Fitted to a wide range of Polo models equipped with the 1198 cm³ petrol engine (engine code AZQ), this 5-speed manual gearbox undergoes complete strip-down, thorough cleaning and rigorous inspection of every component. Wear parts — including gears, synchromesh rings, bearings and seals — are systematically replaced before the unit is reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested to verify correct operation.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

Several warning signs should alert the driver of a Polo fitted with the GKU reference: crunching or juddering when changing gear, difficulty engaging a gear, unusual vibrations in neutral, or an oil leak from the casing. A grinding noise under acceleration or a gear change that becomes increasingly stiff are also tell-tale signs of advanced wear to the synchromesh rings or internal gears.

Exchange: The Fast, Reliable Solution

With our exchange range, the reconditioned gearbox is rebuilt to 0 km and dispatched without waiting for the old unit to be returned first. It is delivered and fitted first, so your vehicle is not left off the road; the old gearbox, with its 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.

Warranty and Payment

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