How to repair 5th gear golf mk1 diy

[@charlesharrison7705]

You didn't fix it! I have the same problem with my 1990 Jetta. No 5th gear...

[@thami031]

What if fifth gear is going in but pooping out while driving in the highway?

[@wesleysnyders3632]

Then ur sincro are done and need replacement this could get worse and start afeecting other gears until u stuck with only 123.so get them replace asap. Sincro are cheap about 50rand but labor to change them could be an expensive problem not every e likes opening gearboxes

seen this video, these are amateurs, if u want your box sorted out once and for all spend a little extra and take it to a proper mechanic and not these pavement specials.it will cost u a helluva lot more in the long run. how can he tell u the fifth idlers gear is worn without removing it, the shaft can also be worn. stands to reason if the gear had play it was had side play and that will definitely damage the shaft. today anybody with a hammer and screwdriver in hand calls himself a mechanic. these are jokers that are taking people for rides.

this fool is telling u to make sure the 12 spline is not damaged, did ull see the condition of the one he is using.
