Hi.
2002 TD5, and the gearbox has started 'whirring'. I gather this is wear in the rear gearbox bearings, so a refurb unit is required.
I'm happy taking the gearbox out, but the engine itself does leak oil. I was wondering about removing the engine and gearbox together so I can fix both problems at once. Did this before on a 300TDi, but Mr Haynes does not seem to cover it in the TD5 book.
Does anyone know if removing the engine and gearbox together is viable?
Thanks. Pete
