Hi all.
I have my 2001 Audi A2 1.4TDI 55KW with EWQ gearbox. It has always had (since I bought it 3 years ago) rather sticky gearshift and had some trouble switching gears.
Recently my 2nd and 4th gear disappeared 8right after visiting MOT) and now only have reverse, 1st, 3rd and 5th gear.
After having a look under the bonnet with a friend I discovered culprit to be really work shifter tower.
Compared to this tower shown in video:
my is much worse. Even so much that the tower "wiggles" past 2nd and 4th gears unable to engage them.
So new tower with upper parts are needed but I'm having trouble sourcing parts.
My location is Estonia, Europe.
Since I don't have quite much money buying OEM parts from dealer is a no-go and would total the cost of car itself.
Options are used OEM part or new aftermarket part.
What I have found so far:
Aftermarket shifter tower: https://www.xdalys.lt/en/product/14686975519/
Used original shifter tower: https://www.xdalys.lt/en/product/13878742555/
I tried searching using OEM part nr. 02t301230j If any of you know any more suitable OEM number for my A2, please let me know.
