Hi all, new to the forum Just wondering if anyone has carried out the 5th gear modification on their 1.4TDI - basically it involves swapping out the existing 5th gear for a longer gear to reduce the revs which makes for quiter and more economical cruising. Drivers of the 1.4TDI engined models will know that the standard 5th gear is rather short so when cruising at 70mph (or overtaking at higher speeds!) the engine doesn't feel very relaxed revving at 2600rpm+ If anyone has carried out this modification I would be very interested in hearing how it's worked out. Apparently, the idea is to make the 5th gear longer but not to make the gap between 4th-5th too long so that you have to keep downshifitng to 4th which would probably make the economy worse. Cheers
