    T4 5th gear mod. Which ratio?

    Hi all,

    Has anyone changed their 5th gear so your engine isn’t screaming when cruising on the highway? What ratio have people gone with? I was thinking 0.66 but would love to hear from anyone else whose done it?

    I have a 2.0 petrol transporter

    Thanks!

    Nope. Though I recall something about the 5th gear from a Mk4 Golf TDI being a thing for a petrol T4...

      I can't give an answer for you but there has been many postings in the T4 Forum in the UK.
      Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.
