Advice please...

The gear change on my 8v gti seems sloppy, works and goes into gear but feel very sloppy. Is the common and is there an easy fix to it.

Thanks

Hi, you have a normal problem There is a fix for it available numerous sellers on ebay can provide the parts required. Fitting the parts is very straight forward the Orange bush is the tricky bit.
