Mk4 1.9tdi 02J Gearbox = Mk5 1.9tdi 02J Gearbox?

[nial]

Hello!
Can any helpful and knowledgeable person tell me if the 5-speed 1.9TDI mk4 and Mk5 gearboxes are essentially the same?


The gearbox has just packed-up on my BXE engined Golf and I have an ATD engine and gearbox from a Mk4 sitting in the garage. They look outwardly the same at least but I'd rather not go to the trouble of trying to install it if it ain't going to fit.


Any input appreciated

Thanks!

gearbox will have its own code

can you take a picture of the white sticker in the boot

Gearbox codes are different. I just want to know if there any issues with physically fitting it. Ratios are similar.

Actually ratios are identical ATD engine has EUH box and Mk5 has GQQ gearbox

what about clutch, pressure plate & thrust bearing ?


if they are the same parts, I would go for it

I thought roughly & I mean roughly !!!!!!!!!!!! before I get shot down in flames ................................ that there was 4 types of engine codes for most VAG cars & 2 types of gearboxes ??
