Hi there,
I'm looking to get the gearbox changed in my mk7 rwd 2.4 07 transit and have some compatability questions.
To make things interesting the sticker on the side of my gearbox is completely worn and i can only make out '???? 7003 BB' i've seen two imprints on the gearbox as well. one showing 4C1R-7006 and another showing 4C1R-7K400.
After looking around for a replacement i've become a bit confused with which gearboxes are compatible, sorry if this seems somewhat obvious i'm not so mechanically minded. I've seen all manner of options for mk7 rwd 6 spd , 8C1R7003BB, 8C1R7003BA, CC1R7003BB, some with the same codes but from 2012 models (they look a touch different on the external castings but do they work with my 2007?) etc.
Do i need to find something that is an absolute exact match (van year, code numbers etc) or is there some leeway?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
James
