[200q20v] RE: tranny for 200Q20V (C1J1Miller@aol.com)

Chris,

Do you know the details of these trannys?  They've been in Audi stock for a
while and recently released or something else?  Any idea of warranties that
might be offered?

My 1989 200Q10V tranny makes some noise in 1st & 2nd that 2Bennett thinks is
likely some bearings getting weak, and they also propose that the 1991
tranny will fit my 1989 just fine.  Inasmuch as the clutch (original clutch
at 144k) is needing replacement (noisy release bearing), and there's no
additional labor to swap trannys, I'm definitely interested.

I see others have asked about fitment in other vehicles; 2Bennett makes the
same observation as the other lister.  These trannys will fit any 5 cylinder
Quattro, as the bolt pattern for the engines is all alike, but for anything
other than the type 44, you may have to mix/match clutch components from
different models and/or alter tranny/diff mounts and/or use a driveshaft
other than the one that is stock for your car.  It can be done, but not a
bolt-in, except for the type 44.

Dave

I've been approached by someone with new ADZ trannies in Germany (5-speed
manual, as fitted to the 1991 200q20v).

My tranny is fine; any interest from others?  They'd be about $1000
including shipping from germany.
Let me know if interested; I'll post the info on my web site later this
week.
