Adjustment
1. Set the gearbox to neutral and apply the handbrake.

2. Loosen the clamping clamp (arrow). The connection between the selector rod and the shift bracket should be free to move.
3. Remove the shift knob and the bellows.
4. Remove the frame with the cuff.
Attention! The contact surfaces of the stop and the switch housing must be parallel to each other. If necessary, align the stop with the VW-3258 template before installation.

5. Install the template until it stops and tighten it with the screw (arrow).
6. Adjust the selection rod-shift bracket without tension (box in neutral position) and tighten the clamp to a torque of 20 Nm.
7. Pull the shift lever toward the rear seat, loosen the screw and remove the template.
Checking the gap
a. Gap
Checking the work
1. The gear shift lever should be in neutral position opposite 3–4 gear.
2. The bottom of the shift lever, below the bend, should be vertical.
3. Press the clutch, start the engine, wait about 3-6 seconds for the gearbox drive shaft to stop, then repeatedly engage all gears. Pay attention to the operation of the reverse gear lock.
4. Install the frame with the cuff and the shift handle with the corrugated boot.
5. If the gear shift still sticks when you re-engage any gear, engage 1st gear.
6. Remove the gap in the shift drive by pressing the shift lever to the left with 1st gear engaged and applying a force of 2–3 N on the shift handle thread. Gap (distance shift lever stop-shift housing stop) in this position should be: a = 1.3–2.3 mm.
7. Otherwise, turn off 1st gear and repeat the drive adjustment.
8. Signs of correct shift adjustment are: flawless operation and interaction of the shift drive components and ease of movement of the shift drive.
