Hi All
Just had the PRNDS flash of death and had to drive 60 miles home in first gear.
Took to dealers and they say £5k for new gearbox fittedI
a FSH 2006 Mk5 R32 so only worth about 5k
They did offer a wiring check for a couple of hundred quid but VW had recommended replacement due to age etc etc
So at a cross roads as had car since new
I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place
Whats the breakers/auction value of an R32 with non functioning gearbox ?
Asked them to investigate scrappage scheme if I could make a valid claim against it
Any other thoughts ?
