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?

I don't recall of hand what my 2010 Golf GTD shows in 6th at 2,500 rpm 60mph, I think it 2,500 at 70mph.

How long have you had this Golf R if you don't know if the gearbox has been changed?

What is the transmission/gearbox code of the data sticker?

I can't tell you the ratio's without I look in ElsaWin.

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.

There are 645 02Q gearboxes.

There are 21 LHD gearboxes.
