Know This Transmission Before You Buy
The research behind our purchase interview — recalls, bulletins and real install economics for this transmission family:
A quick look at your own vehicle makes sure the right transmission shows up:
- Confirm vehicle is Quattro (All-Wheel Drive).
- Verify 3-letter transmission code is LRY, MRR, or LYR.
- Confirm engine is 2.0L 4-cylinder Turbo (TFSI).
- Check rear output style (6-bolt flange coupling vs splined shaft).
What the install really takes — plan and budget with confidence:
Special tools this job needs:
- Triple Square (XZN) sockets (M10, M12, M14)
- Torx sockets (T30, T40, T45)
- Transmission jack
- Engine support bar / fixtures
- 17mm Allen socket
- Clutch alignment tool
- Flywheel locking tool
- Slide hammer for pilot bearing
- Pressure bleeder for clutch hydraulic system
Budget for these consumables at install:
- Manual Gear Oil (Genuine Audi/VW G 055 532 A2 or SAE 75W-90 GL-4 synthetic gear oil, 4.5 to 4.8 liters)
- Clutch Kit (clutch disc, pressure plate, throw-out/release bearing)
- Pilot Bearing
- Rear Main Seal
- Single-use stretch bolts for flywheel, pressure plate, inner CV axles, and driveshaft flange
- Dual-mass flywheel (replace or professionally resurface)
- Clutch Slave Cylinder
What your vehicle’s computers will need after the swap:
What’s involved: none
Fully mechanical manual transmission. No internal TCM or mechatronics. Direct plug-and-play mechanical installation.
Pro tips for a smooth first start-up — hand them to whoever does the install:
- Dual-Mass Flywheel Alignment Pins must align perfectly with clutch module.
- Clutch Slave Cylinder Bleeding is notoriously difficult; pressure bleeder is strongly recommended.
- Driveshaft Output Styles vary (splined rear output shaft vs 6-bolt flange coupling); verify match.
- No Impact Guns on Triple Square Bolts to prevent stripping.
- Engine Bay Access requires significant disassembly (cowl, ECU tray, windshield wiper assembly) to reach top bellhousing bolts.
- Crossmember may block access to the drain plug on some models, requiring removal.
Easy to get right once you know them:
- Ordering for a Front-Wheel-Drive (FWD) Vehicle (FWD uses 0B1 or 0B3).
- Ordering for an S4 or S5 (3.0T V6 / V8 models which use 0B4).
- Reusing single-use stretch bolts for axles, driveshaft, or flywheel.
- Using GL-5 Gear Oil instead of GL-4, which corrodes brass synchronizers.
- Not replacing the clutch and flywheel during install.
- Forgetting to replace rear main seal or pilot bearing.
- Incorrectly diagnosing a propshaft bearing whine as a transmission failure.

Policies, in plain English.
Shipping & Handling
- Ships by LTL freight on a pallet — a real freight truck, not a parcel van
- Your checkout freight quote covers delivery to your door (liftgate service included for residential addresses)
- The carrier calls ahead to schedule a delivery window — someone must be present to receive it
- Typically palletized and picked up within 2–3 business days; transit time depends on distance
120-Day Warranty
This part includes a 120-day warranty.
- If the part fails within the warranty window, we'll replace it or refund per the coverage terms
- Coverage is parts-only — installation labor is not included
- Warranty covers defects — not installation errors, misuse, or damage after installation
Your pre-purchase interview reviews these exact terms with you before anything is charged.
Returns (30 Days)
We accept returns of uninstalled parts within 30 days of delivery for this part.
- Defective parts: We will replace the part or issue a refund at our discretion
- Programming: "Needs to be programmed to my vehicle" is not a valid return reason. Many modules require dealer programming — we're happy to help connect you with resources if your dealer says it's not programmable
- Return shipping: This part ships by freight (LTL) — the part price is refundable per the terms above, but shipping costs are non-refundable and return freight follows the seller's return terms. Your pre-purchase interview walks through the exact numbers before you buy
- Parts must be returned in original packaging and unmodified condition
- Poorly packaged returns that arrive damaged will not be credited
Damaged in Shipping?
Freight damage is rare — and you're fully protected when you do two things at delivery:
- Inspect before you sign — you're allowed time to look the pallet over while the driver waits
- Write any damage on the delivery receipt before signing — that one line is what makes a freight claim succeed
- Severe damage? Refuse the delivery — it goes back at no cost to you and we make it right
- Photograph the pallet before unwrapping; report concealed damage within 24 hours of delivery
We handle the carrier claim — you just help document it. Your pre-purchase interview walks through this checklist too.
Order Cancellation
Cancel before shipment for a full refund. Once the pallet has been built, a preparation charge may apply — and once the freight carrier picks it up, shipping costs are non-refundable and standard return terms apply. Your pre-purchase interview shows the exact numbers before you pay.
