Hi everyone

My gearbox has been whining for quite a while now, it used to be in 3rd gear only but now it’s pretty much any of the gear’s except 6th.
Only does it when I let off the gas, never does it on power.

would a box from a Cupra R Fit or any other petrol 6 speed car like the golf or does it have to be an AUQ engine car?
Thank you in advance

Have you fitted the shim mod? that fixes it in most cases and you don't even have to remove the box from the car. Note there are 2 different sizes, you need to measure the one on your box to see which one it is.
