Why should I replace both 4th gears at the same time?

The 32T and 27T gears are a meshed pair and wear together. Replacing only one gear against a worn counterpart will cause rapid damage to the new part. A matched kit replacement gives the most reliable, long-lasting repair.

What symptoms suggest I need this kit?

Noise or whining specifically in 4th gear, difficulty engaging 4th, or the gear lever popping out of 4th under acceleration or overrun are the most common signs.

Which vehicles does this kit fit?

The 02Z gearbox is used in the Volkswagen Transporter T4 and T5 range, including Multivan and California variants. If in doubt, please provide your VIN for confirmation.

Can I buy the individual gears separately?

Yes — the 32T gear is listed as ET2616 and the 27T gear as ET2615. Both are available separately if only one needs replacing.

Is professional installation required?

Yes — this repair requires full gearbox removal and press tooling. It is intended for professional mechanics or experienced gearbox rebuilders.
