Before I call every single OE parts place on the links page, can anyone
recommend a source for quattro transmission parts?
I was disappointed to find a couple of cracked teeth on the sliding reverse gear
of my trans. Looks like a sharp impact under partial engagement of the reverse
gears. The 1st/2nd operating sleeve also has a couple of cracked teeth. I don't
remember ever hammering it into reverse, but I suppose its possible. If it was the PO,
then I have been driving around with cracked teeth for at least 90k miles. I keep
telling myself that it's only reverse, but it's against my better judgement to put
this thing back together with cracked teeth. Seems like a time bomb...
The local dealer wants $400 for parts. Ouch!
