Caveats and conflicts (5)
  • Page covers VW/Audi only; Skoda vRS, Seat Leon Cupra, Ibiza Cupra not listed on it. Ibiza Cupra may differ.
  • US Mk5 Golf/Rabbit 2.5 used a 5-speed, so this applies to the 6-speed cars only.
  • 02M is Mk4-era (R32, 2002 GTI VR6); Passat B6/B7 and Golf R Mk6 not in FCP table.
  • Single retailer blog.
  • Mk5 Jetta 2.5 used a 5-speed.
