    Short Shifter For Polo TDi

    Does anyone know if there is a short Shifter Kit for a Polo TDi ? Ohh also does the APR dogbone mount fit a Polo TDi?

    At this point of posting this I havent searched the forum yet.

    Thanks in advance

    I did a search for a Polo GTI short shifter back in February, and came up with one in excess of $500, so I think one for a TDI would be even more rarer.

    Unsure about the Torque Arm Insert. From what I have been told(and I don't know how true this is), all of the Polo range share the same Torque Arm, so the Bush itself may in fact fit.
    Grab a 16mm socket and Ratchet and get under your car and pull out the Torque Arm. If it looks like this(The metal bit):

    Then the insert should fit it.

    Hey man, how did you go with your Torque Arm?? Is it the same as the Polo GTI?
    I have also been informed that the GTI and TDI may share the same Gear Box and linkages(Thanks Seb), so that short shift kit I sent you the link to may in fact work on your car.
