02U Gearbox 6th Speed Gear 48T – Audi / SEAT / Skoda / VW

This 6th speed (top gear) gear with 48 teeth (OEM ref: 02U311349P) is a direct replacement for Audi, SEAT, Skoda and Volkswagen models fitted with the 02U 6-speed manual transaxle. The 6th gear is the final overdrive ratio — a chipped, stripped or noisy 6th gear will prevent the vehicle from reaching or holding motorway speeds comfortably.
