I'm beginning to wonder if someone swapped the trans in my Golf TDI with one from a Golf R. It spins 2400 rpm at 60 in 6th gear and closer to 3k at 70. That can't be normal for a tdi can it? The shift indicator on the dash seems to think I'm in 4th and is telling me did upshift to 6th while cruising at 60. Any thoughts?
This is a new forum layout with loads of bugs which have been reported in the new thread. There is no TDI Wiki at the moment or or original similes. It doesn't show the car spec/location or signature either
Sorry for not making an induction, I've been a paid member for years and can't believe that I've never posted before. The car is brand new to me. I'll have to see if I can find the data tag on the trans this weekend.
Thanks
It’s not likely the right trans...I should say version of the 02Q. I believe the proper one would have a code of LHD. I have a 12 Golf and 60 in 6th gear is approximately 1600-1800rpm if I remember correctly. Though the 11+ models got a taller 6th gear so not sure if the trans code was different for the 09 and 10 model years.

Hi everyone,
I need some help with my 2007 Passat B6 TDI PD BMR, I bought the car with the tank lift pump not working so to start the engine I needed to crank it for at least 30 sec, I believe that method has been used for a while before I bought the car. After I replaced the lift pump i still...
