Evening all!
I'm researching whether is it possible to mount newer, 02R gearbox, into an AMF / EWQ powered a2 without any modifications to the gearbox case.
This could be useful in case of warranty.
Hopefully I'll be replacing my gearbox soon, due to EWQ suffering from a few crunchy gears lately.
There are two types of gearbox mounts implemented on Vag A03/A04/A05 platform cars.
Older 1.4 tdi cars used 6N0199543F with 6N0199565C or our 8Z0199543A (17) with 8Z0199565F (15).
Newer cars, such as polo 6r or fabia 5j, use 6R0199111A (11) with 6R0199555 (9), diesel and petrol equally.
This "newer" type of mount has been implemented only in petrol A2s.
Which brings me to the big question: Can I use petrol mount on a diesel engine?
What sort of problems would I potentially run into?
Engine / gearbox combo weight is in the same region, could vibrations be the problem?
Please share your thoughts and ideas.
Cheers
