we're also going to adapt one of the brackets from the automatic wiring harness to support the power steering line. We're going to adapt the existing harness for clutch cancel, cruise, and reverse switch later on. Since there are all of these differences, we're not going to use the transmission, transmission computer, axles, Starter, chunks of the wiring harness, park neutral relay, and probably a bunch of other stuff that was left out just because we're a bit lazy, or didn't take that photo. not there (Duh!) Starter Wiring Harness (Duh!) Park Neutral Relay
#O2A VS O2J SHIFT MANUAL#
Notable DIfferences The automatic has a different: Coolant pipe Power steering line Injection Pump Axles Transmission Computer (the manual doesn't have any wires, other than the speed sensor and the reverse switch) Transmission (Duh!) Shift Linkage (Duh!) Clutch Pedal. It's for the budget conscious, or for the green, or for those who want a little more power. This one is specifically from a 2001 Beetle TDI ith occasional shots from a 2003 Jetta TDI. Who is this for? This instructable is for owners of any Mk4 VW Golf/Jetta/Beetle. This is my first instructable, Thanks to everyone who voted for me in the Epilog Challenge! I don't think I'm going to win, but hey it's not a bad try! and you want to save some money, and get better economy to boot. 5) Your automatic transmission just died. 3) The automatic TDI only gets about 35 MPG real world, where the manual is capable of delivering a prius challenging 50 MPG. and at $4500 used, it's expensive junk 2) the 02j 5 speed is not junk, and at $600-$1000 used, you can save a lot of money converting. why do you want to swap? 1) the 01m automatic transmission is junk. Note this is for the TDI only, the 1.8T and VR6 are similar, but wiring, and programming are almost 100% different.
