Here’s a look inside a longitudinally mounted front wheel drive manual transmission to see what’s inside and how it works.
This manual transmission came out of a 2002 B5.5 Volkswagen Passat. It is a front wheel drive car but has a longitudinally mounted engine (which is often found in RWD setups). It has a 5 – speed manual transmission with reverse. In this video we tear into the setup, including the input shaft, countershaft and front differential. In addition, we examine the three shifter forks that are responsible for the gears; 1-2, 3-4 and 5-reverse. We also shift through each gear to see how the shifter forks move, the collars slide, and synchronizers to control the gear ratio.
