BUSINESS WTB - stuffed/wrecked/unwanted DSG box

[chez00]

Hello,
As the title states, we are after a DSG to do some in-house R&D. Not after the mechatronics, just the box (but don't mind if we get the lot). Will pay freight for interstate shipping if the price is right.
Any broken or unwanted gearboxes out there? I don't really mind what it's out of.
Cheers,
Sam

Hi Sam - see here: http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...box-89964.html

This is the only DSG box ive seen advertised for a long time. Might be more than you were hoping to spend though. Are you aware that there are several different DSG boxes (eg 6 speed wet clutch, 7 speed wet clutch and 7 speed dry clutch).

The 7 speed dry clutch (used in low torque versions of the Polo and Golf) are the ones that commonly have issues. The wet clutch models (although not perfect) are far more robust and reliable.

Could supply you with a HXU code DSG out of a 2006 1.9tdi with 68k on it for around $1500 delivered.

Hmmm yeah I thought there might be something that was junked out there (and hence cheaper) with all these "issues" they have. Cheers anyway.

If you want this one, its mine. I'll do it for $1000 + postage.
