I will crawl under my van = tomorrow and see what my tranny says.  I know mine is from an 82 Air Cooled Vanagon transporter.

Subject: Correct Tranny?

Volks, =

I am in the middle of putting a 1989 Jetta Digifant I4 engine in an 82 Diesel = and from what I read the transmission of choice is one out of an 1980-83 Air = Cooled Vanagon. The way I read Bentley it looks like I need a tranny with a = "DK" code on it?

Has anyone ever come across a air cooled unit in a "DM" = case? I purchased a tranny from someone locally who says its from an Air = Cooled Van, it definitely has an Air Cooled Bellhousing (starter mounted to side), = but it is marked with "DM" code letters, making it a Diesel Tranny? (I = think).

If this is not an Air Cooled Tranny does anyone have a good = used unit for sale?

Thanks for you help,
