Hi Marc,

Here's some pictures http://s57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/fangoul

I figured that price was pretty high. It was for a used tranny too. I think
it may have had a 1 year warranty but still not rebuilt.

This sounds like a good place to hang out.
Thanks,
Andy

Welcome to the list Andy, greast you are driving a Scirocco ;-)

Any pictures of your car?

The asking price seems very steep to me unless it is a rebuilt tranny with a
good waranty. Otherwise you should get a much better price used. These
transmissions are plentyfull. They go for cheap, and sometimes for free.

Cheers.
