My 89 syncro westy (175 K miles) has developed a whine/rumble/vibration in 3rd and 4th gears and I have been advised that this a fairly common failure, requiring a transmission rebuild. I searched the archives and came up with some shops and was wondering what the collective wisdom was regarding these shops, the quality of their work, workmanship, parts used, cost etc. Are there other options? Please reply and/or copy me directly at Joe_Ernest@unionsanitary.com, VolksMotorsports AA Transaxle WeddleEngr VolksWerks (ToddHill) Phone disconnected Thanks.....JoE |
