_LM46 Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Hello, my VW Lupo 1.4 TDI currently has a gearbox problem and I am not sure what I need to do to fix it, the gears all work fine once it is in gear but it doesn’t want to go into gear and I end up searching for the gears, going up the gears is easier but when you want to downshift it really struggles to get into gear, I’m really hoping I don’t need a new gearbox, I’ve been told it might be todo with the clutch, but at this point I am looking for any advice or suggestions on what to try, thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeha Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Sounds like classic clutch drag where the engine never disengages properly. Could be that the hydraulic system isn't pushing the clutch arm far enough. What height is the clutch pedal? Does it feel like it's pushing all the way down? Have a look at the pedal from below and make sure the white plastic bit hasn't punched it's way out of the back of the pedal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
