TDi/VM gearbox?

(1/1)

clbarclay:
Hi, does anyone know if a 200TDi will fit straight onto the same bellhousing/gearbox input shaft as a 2.4VM? I don't want to buy a TDi and then discover I've got to change the gearbox. I've got to buy a new clutch anyway so that is not an issue.

simdeb:
from what ive been told they do not i asked the same as i have a vm rangey and a 200tdi going spare was going to fit it in

Hiya,I put a TDI engine in mine .I used the VM gearbox with a TDI bell housing which was a direct swap.The only thing i had trouble with was the spigot bush in the end of the crankshaft.The outside diameter is the same but internal diameter is smaller for the VM gearbox output shaft.I got a bush made by a local engineering firm and all was well.
hope this helps.

If its a bearing and not a bush for the spigot its just a matter of getting a smaller id bearing but with the same od and thickness
