Product Description
This Arrowhead mounting gearbox is a brand new gearbox mounting designed to secure and stabilise the gearbox in select Audi and Volkswagen models. The part features a robust metal bracket with an integrated rubber bushing and machined arm, helping to absorb vibrations and reduce noise from the drivetrain. Proper gearbox mounting is essential for maintaining smooth gear changes and overall driving comfort.
This mounting gearbox is compatible with certain Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, including models like the Audi A1, S1, and VW Polo 6R with 1.0 TSI and TFSI engines from 2014 to 2018. Always confirm your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before ordering.
Common symptoms of a worn or damaged gearbox mounting include excessive vibration, unusual noises such as knocking or clunking from the gearbox area, difficulty shifting gears, misalignment of the drivetrain, and visible movement of the gearbox under load. If you notice any of these issues, it may be time to inspect your gearbox mounting.
Replacing the gearbox mounting is important when you experience increased drivetrain vibration, hear persistent noises from the gearbox, or notice signs of physical wear or cracking on the mounting. Timely replacement helps prevent further damage to the gearbox and other drivetrain components.
