  1. The definitive Gearbox thread

    in Car Care, Maintenance and Mechanical

    Posted

    Hi all,

    I have a 1.4 16v 2002 lupo - 52 reg engine code BBY. I've basically determined the pinion bearing is on they way out and I need it rebuilt.

    BOH : (

    Anyway i phoned around to get some prices today and the first thing the fella at the garage said was is it an 085 (less expensive) or 02T (more expensive) box. can anyone shed any light on this?

    I have googled about and think it is an 085 as the 02T tends to be in the lupo GTI (I think).

    How can I find out what I have?

    Thanks

    Will

    Hi all ,

    I am having gearbox issues with my lupo (sounds like the noise of a wheel bearing that has gone - rubbing noise between 0 -20mph) and have been told it's the pinion bearing most probably. I have a 1.4 16v lupo se. How can I find out the gearbox code? The engine code is BBY 160125.

    Is the gearbox code symply BBY? ( I saw a similar connetion mentioned on this thread - but i'm not sure).

    Also if it is BBY, would a gearbox from a 1.4 seat ibiza BBY gearbox 2003 fit and work in my car? - have seen one for £200 that looks good.

    cheers

    Will

  8. what kind of cd player?

    in Interior and In-Car Entertainment

    OEM wise you can get a:

    VW single CD player which sits in the dash under the HU and connects via a lead

    VW 6 disk changer which sits in the dash under the HU and connects via a lead

    VW multi changer which mounts in the boot and connects via a long lead

    If you get the in dash ones thee are 2 different leads, one which has a small aux lead for the button illumination, the other doesn't.

    cheers for that,

    I'm looking on ebay - but wondered how much the multi changers and lead go for?

    any ideas

  9. what kind of cd player?

    Hi,

    I have a BETA radio/cassette installed with single space below it (looks ideal for cd) - and i want to get a CD player in the car, couple of questions (and sorry for these being pretty basic but i can't find the answers) : )

    1. manual talks of connecting a cd changer to the system - is this some item that sits on the dash or in the boot (i.e a multichanger?)

    2. how can i find out what kind of cd player i can install?

    thanks for any help

    will
