Sell the vehicle as it is and get a manual transmission instead. I wouldn't recommend going through the process of the conversion from auto to manual. 1 Like |

That conversion will drill more hole in your pocket than you think. Discard that vehicle if you are tired |

stephenponti: Naija and seahorse.....that atf just took over from abro big time I'm guessing u didn't drain and replace regularly It even tried sef...a whole 2years Buy anoda trans,u cld use Mobil atf instead of seahorse.but then u need to drain and refill constantly cos dat might not be the recommended oil for ur cos I don't know the year.....but, NOTE: Attention 1992-1997 Vw owners with 4 speed automatic transmissions. Although most Bentley manuals refer to a Dexron AFT, it seems that certain factory fiche vehicle part breakdowns began to indicate changes in fluid recommendation with vehicles manufactured in/around July 1995. The newer recommendation was for Vw automatic transmission fluid meeting the improved Audi Vw specification TL52162 (Audi Vw part number G 052 162 A2). |

dumo1:You are very uncouth... Unintelligent....Rude with probably a very crass upbringing.. you should know that transmission swapping is done daily and it's even easier converting from auto transmission to a manual transmission than vice versa... But then you will still choose to be what you are... 5 Likes |
