You read my mind but I seem to have miss placed the ball

been on to trading standards but not much help cos it depends on what he put on the ad 

wich has now disappeared from Facebook 

so a possible visit at the weekend 

Turns out only the 1.6 fsi will fit or the mk5 golf  1.6

he has just bought one for £300 

so that’s the repair bill up to £900 

the previous owner is not playing ball with a contribution towards the repairs 

might have to give him a knock ✊ 

Gearbox has gone in a 1.6 fsi

will a one out of a 1.9 or 2.0 fit 

code is HBM

Will a gear box out of a bigger engine car fit

Hi the gearbox number will be in raised letters on top of the bell housing in its own little frame on my system its either an FVH or JHT both five speed manuals.

Steve.

Think this is BLF according to manual 

so does that mean any 6 speed blf gearbox will fit ? 

Putting new clutch in as there is oil in them

also gearbox is broke 🙄

it’s just one thing after another 

what gearbox will fit in that model 

have got a picture of engine number if that helps

any advice would be most appreciated 

Good shout 

I will ask him to check it over while it’s out 

thanks again 

I know the garage owner and he always looks after me 

he said he would check the fly wheel as well 

fingers crossed 

Not sure mate

its booked in next week 

had a chat with last owner who might be paying something towards the repair 😉

will keep you up to speed on the outcome 

just trying to the little jobs to keep him happy 

Good shout 

normally it’s just a spade connection to it 

back out with the multi meter

and to add insult to injury that’s only a small problem 

just noticed a oil leak so took it to the garage and turns out it’s the crankshaft oil seal 

feel sorry for my son as he has just upgraded from a little corsa and loves the Audi 

£500 to get fixed

I think the fuse with the wire coming out might have been a previous head unit install for a permanent live 

or it could be for the parrot hands free that is installed 

not sure what else the light problem could be if the fuse is ok 

I will give that a try during the week and keep you posted

thanks again

Tested the continuity with a meter and there is no power getting to the bulb holder 

double checked the fuse and that is ok 

My son has just bought a a3 2006 

but the interior lights aren’t working 

so I checked the fuse and one of the 10 amps had blown but I only had  a 7.5  but still didn’t work

so I opened the light to check the bulb and there was no bulbs in any of the interior lights 😱

so I had a spare one which I put in and still no joy 

there is no power going to the bulb holder 

can anyone confirm the fuse location or anything else it could bec

the boot one works 🥳

can send photos of fuses if needed
