Have you had gearbox problems with your Polo GTI?

Just curious here. My gearbox is still in tact at the moment, after 20,000km. So what modifications would void the warranty on the box in case something happens down the track? At the moment I don't really don't want to do any mods that might void the warranty on what seems to be a very fragile item. I hope the mods I have so far won't affected it ? I guess Flaps you got things sorted under warranty? Any thoughts people?

Lol I wish! The only warranty I have is probably on electrics. I paid to have the LSD installed and box rebuilt. I wouldn't let VW touch my car after what happened to Koz when his box was replaced for the 2nd time under warranty.

VW know that the gearbox is weak. I reckon they'd replace at the minimum one a week worldwide. There's a recall on them in the UK and Germany. Which involves a change of oil...
