Waiting impatiently for the installation video PJ.

[@ashtonswartz8902]

Good afternoon Mr PJ, I'm having difficulty changing gears in my 1.8 4speed golf, I find it very difficult to move my gear lever to select gears, any advice please?

[@funnyvideosdaily8714]

Did you manage to solve that problem?

[@ashtonswartz8902]

Nope, haven't driven my car in over a year

[@iiviiixcvii5048]

Realignment is what I’m struggling with cause I never knew one had to make markings🙆‍♂️

[@reignofthelastphoenix3269]

Hey are you in kenya? Need help with my vw citicom 2002 1400cc.

[@Ian-of9oi]

My brothers mk1 diesel is stuck in reverse. He took the linkage off. Now I am trying to help him. Fist question is how do we get the transmission out of reverse? It’s a 4 speed .

[@michaelkroukamp221]

There are also two small black bushes between the gear leaver and the selector shaft (under the gear leaver) they should be changed.also check the ball on the gear leaver and the gear leaver housing

Hey I own a mk1 golf and the car was 4speed and I bought a 5speed gearbox, and I still can't change the gear to number 5

[@zakheleshelembe5904]

Thank you so much mfwethu, that was helpful

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

Cool👍

[@msizihlongwane9965]

Hi Mr Pj's.. I'm a huge fan of your videos as I own a mk1. I've used your videos for troubleshooting and fixing my car and it has saved me lot of money and stress. My only problem is gear no 1 and reverse there's nothing separating the two, of which it makes it hard for me to select gear 1 without having to comfuse it with reverse. Any suggestions or I need a new gearbox?

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

You need to play around with the shift rod. Loosen the pinch bolt, and make a small adjustment either way, until the Gear selection becomes better... Well that's if all your Bushes are still good.. Worn out Bushes can cause the problem you have.. And also check on the 2 selector Rods, if they securely attached.

hi what are the 4 small plastic things for

Did you manage to post that video where you i stall the new linkages bushes

[@nhlapothomas4384]

Hii Mr PJ. My Golf is stuck on the reverse gear. What can I do to fix it?

[@rubenfilippus2956]

The link where to purchase them?

[@captainvw7355]

ok so i didnt put a mark on that shaft when i took it out is there a way where i can put it back in but in its correct place, does it have a mark that comes on the shaft or do we have to make one specifically for it?

[@oarabilerakola6496]

I've an Mk3 Jetta CLX and the problem I'm having is that reverse gear doesn't engage... Everytime I put on reverse it moves forward

[@tembamahlangu7990]

How do I set the gears I didn't know about the markings💀

[@louisgouws5680]

Morning Pj. Thank you for all your vids. It has helped me a lot can you give me some advice 2000 1.3 sonic if I shift from 1st to 2nd it grinds but the rest of the gears is fine. What can be the cause for that. Regards And keep up with the good videos

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

Hi. You could check on your gear oil level, and also maybe the Gear linkage Bushes are a bit worn..

[@abdulwaaghiedadams6205]

good video I changed a 4speed box to a 5speed so having truoble with gear selecting i have a good idea of the linkages now

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

[@Be_A_Nigga]

Same thing applies to me......did you get help

[@zanelemsane312]

Nice theory and demonstration no practicals

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

Not sure if your comment means you happy, or not happy with the video.

[@mlagercroc1367]

I wish i watched this video before i replaced my bushes,now i'm olny using up to gear no.4😢

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

Hi, did u not replace all the bushes.?

[@calebshunmugam8920]

@@pjs-golfmk1-diy hello. Cool videos. Can you please do a video on how to do a brake fluid flush.

[@mlagercroc1367]

I did purchase the new bushes,I didnt mark the pitch bolt that where i.went wrong

[@Tutterzoid]

Dankie Boet :)

[@aslamhassen9756]

Hi Mr Pj my gear stick sometimes jams is it that orange bush

[@pjs-golfmk1-diy]

Yes if that Bush is totally worn out.. You can experience that and difficulty with gear selection. Chances are your other Bushes are also worn, so replace all of them one time
