02M & 02Q Stainless Steel Shift Forks Upgrade Kit - Genuine VW/Audi
It is indisputable that steel is much more resilient than brass, and this is particularly true when it comes to the VW 6-speed manual transmission. In the past, VW has used shift forks with parts made of brass, which can be unreliable. When used regularly, brass forks can, unfortunately, break, resulting in a car that is stuck in gear. If a shift fork breaks, the transmission will need to be opened up and the part replaced (see the photos on this page). Needless to say, this can leave you stranded.
Carrot Top Tuning believes that it would be a waste of both your time and money to replace the OEM shift forks with the same substandard part. Why chance a second disappointment by installing an identical part that won't meet your expectations? Our steel shift forks provide a much better alternative.
Carrot Top Tuning Fork Shift Advantages
With a Carrot Top Tuning shift fork, you get:
Replace your manual transmission's OEM riveted assembly with a stronger and more reliable steel Carrot Top Tuning fork. Not only will it provide you with a precise fit, but it will also ensure that functionality and performance are not compromised. These forks replace completely the outdated OEM forks.
Timely Shifter Upgrade
Don't be imprudent and wait until you have an issue. If you drive your VW with vigor, the possibility of a malfunctioning OEM brass shifter fork is always present. Take action now and reinforce your transmission to avoid a breakdown when it matters most.
It is wise to switch out the gear forks when you are taking out the transmission for other repairs, such as putting in a high-performance clutch and flywheel. This will save you time and avoid having to do the same job twice. When you are replacing the shifting forks in a 2004+ VW 6 speed transmission, you must also get a one-time-use transmission cap for 2009+ models with a 02Q 6-speed, or this cap for 02M or 02Q 6-speed transmissions. Additionally, you will need a tube of silicone sealant to seal between certain parts where no gasket is used. Make sure to add these items to your order before you check out.
