VW help

A bit O/T but the gearchange on my colleagues VW Golf MK4 is very stiff moving from side to side.

I seem to remember that my old Company Golf did this too, but I just gave it to the dealer to sort out, I think it must be a common problem.

Any one know the fix or is it a new cable?

Cheers

Mark

It is fairly common, just need to take the gearbox end of the linkage off, give it a clean and regrease and it'll be fine.

Have a look at the linkage as someone moves it side to side and it'll become obvious which bit is seized up.
