Ihave thought about this for a while now and have seen a dsg box from a 1.9tdi on ebay. can it be done or am I dreaming??

what do you think?

It could be done- anything *can* be done, but I suspect the amount of work would be ridiculous. The DSG box is big and heavy, so would be hard to fit- and there would doubtless be big problems in many areas.

It would cost a fortune. Special ECU to control the mechatronics, wiring, steering wheel for flappy paddles etc etc.

You could do without the flappies, and possibly use an ECU from another VAG car for the mechatronics, but it would still be a nightmare, even if you managed to get the box mechanically fitted. That would be very tight, then there'd be driveshafts and mounts for a start.

Big, big money and loads of trouble.
