Reconditioned Volkswagen Polo 1.6 Gearbox – 5-Speed Manual – Ref. FFW

Reconditioned Volkswagen Polo 1.6 Petrol Gearbox – Reference FFW

This reconditioned gearbox for the Volkswagen Polo 1.6 Petrol, reference FFW, is a 5-speed manual unit engineered to restore precise, smooth gear changes free from crunching or stiff spots. It is compatible with 1598 cm³ engines fitted with engine codes AEE, AFT, AUR, and ARC. Reconditioning follows a rigorous process: the gearbox is fully stripped down, and every component is cleaned and inspected both visually and dimensionally; gears, synchros, bearings and seals showing any sign of wear are systematically replaced; the unit is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested prior to dispatch under reference FFW, ensuring reliable performance from the moment it is fitted.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On a Polo 1.6 Petrol, the following symptoms indicate that attention is required:

• crunching or resistance when changing gear
• a gear jumping out or refusing to engage properly
• a metallic noise audible in neutral or while driving
• unusual vibrations felt through the gear lever
• an oil leak visible beneath the gearbox casing

Exchange Gearbox – No Waiting Around

This gearbox is sold on an exchange basis, rebuilt to 0 km. The reconditioned unit is dispatched before your old gearbox is collected, so your garage is never left without a part and the vehicle's downtime is kept to a minimum. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected once the FFW unit has been delivered and fitted to the vehicle. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

Reference FFW applies to 1.6 Petrol engines of 1598 cm³ fitted with engine codes AEE, AFT, AUR, or ARC. Before placing an order, we recommend verifying that these engine codes match your vehicle and checking the number on the label of the original gearbox.
