    TDI Shortshifter

    I did a quick search and didn't find anything conclusive. Anyone got a shortshifter for their Polo TDI? I found this, but not sure if it fits. Have sent them an email.

    Got an email from Forge, they said that the Polo 9N3 1.9 TDI is not listed as a compatible car for the 5spd Shortshifter... odd tho if Julian fitted one to his 1.9 TDI

    Could just be that Forge haven't tested it with a TDi since they may not have thought there would be demand for it.

    i always found the polo tdi shift quite nice, precise and relatively short from factory. Didn't realise there was much of a need for it..?

    Ditto. Downshift into 1st is a bit reachy but that's about it.

    I hate the reverse shift but the shortshifter won't help there
