    I THOUGHT it was just generally notchy for all gears after instaling the short shifter. Then after looking at Greg's video, I felt the shift more carefully (with the car off and clutch depressed) and noticed that 5th was always a notchy while 1st was smooth if I didn't push the lever all the way to the left (just slightly off). One click shorter later and the notchiness is totally gone.

    On my late '08 TDi, it says JXY there
    Glad my explanation worked, I'm still not happy with that video, but as you found one click makes all the difference!

    I'll have to investigate Polo gearboxes further, was just told by a member that the later cars had the "02A" gearbox. Would LOVE one of you guys to set me straight there!

    Why not try and start your own group buy? I'm sure there is a few more people that would like one.

    Mate, it was a win-win. Now there is a late model Polo shift bushing kit available ( first in the world for 42DD! ), and you guys helped me work it out. Also forced me to make some fitment videos, and to learn the editing software.

    I now keep both earlly and late model sets for the Polo in stock.
