hi all hope someone can help my 110 tdi is having small fits 330,000ks
fixed headlight prob was a faulty fuse that looked fine till i put it under a mag. glass tinyest crack. any way i allso replaced the headlight switch.
had crappy gear change till i found the right gear oil penrite 75/80
amazing like new, but now i have a rattling noise seems like from around
the top of the gearbox sounds more external not there on idle.
only at about 2500revs was there before oil change, i did degreese the bottom of engine dont think it was there before then did the super cheap auto thing cant find it driving me nuts heeeeeeeelp:confused:

Bias springs/plate adjustment?

Does it do it in every gear, or just 3rd and 4th?

Do you have the workshop manual? Good diagrams and adjustment instructions there.

I've recently rebuilt my box and refitted, and mucked about with the bias springs. Currently not "optimal", and rattles like a good 'un in particular rev ranges in 3rd or 4th.

It is not the exhaust pipe rattling against something, check that all the hangers are on the rubbers properly.
