Ordered before 2pm on a working day, these are dispatched the same day by express courier and normally arrive within 1–2 working days.
Parts supplied from our European supplier
A large part of our range is held by our supplier in Germany rather than on our own shelves. We order these in for you as soon as you place the order. They normally dispatch within 7–10 working days, and are then sent on by express courier like anything else. Nothing ships to you direct from Germany — it comes to our Arlesey workshop first, so you deal only with us for returns and warranty.

What causes 5th gear failure on the 02T gearbox?
The 02T is a well-known gearbox in VAG vehicles and its 5th gear is a common wear item. Symptoms include difficulty engaging 5th, popping out of 5th under load, and grinding. This is typically caused by worn gear teeth or a failing input shaft bearing allowing excess play.
Should I replace both 5th gears at the same time?
It is strongly recommended to replace both the input and output 5th gears as a matched pair. Using a new gear against a worn mating gear will accelerate wear on the new part. See ETB2870 for the matched 37T/50T bundle.
Is this an OE or aftermarket part?
This part is supplied as a high-quality aftermarket replacement manufactured to OE specification. The OE reference 02T311361B can be used to cross-reference against your vehicle or gearbox code.
What gearbox codes use part number 02T311361B?
This gear is used in gearboxes coded 02T, 0AF, and 0AP — the 5-speed transverse manual gearboxes found across VAG's small and compact car range from the early 2000s onwards.
How do I identify which 5th gear ratio I need?
The 02T gearbox has different 5th gear ratios depending on the vehicle and engine. The 37T input gear pairs with the 50T output gear to give a specific final drive ratio. If you are unsure, send us your VIN and we will advise the correct parts.
