Octavia gearbox dirty little secret, advise sort

Featured Replies

Found this dirty fix on the lower dog bone mount. Both bolts helicoiled but not looking great. Anyone had similar on one of these? fitted a timesert? Have experience of sorting this without replacing the gearbox? The the car is too good to scrap, rough round the edges but everything else works. It's a 2009 Scout PD with high miles.

 

Thanks in advance

Drama not too bad in the end. Helicoil had pulled out a we bit. This was removed and the hole reaped to m12. All nice and tight now. On to the top mount fix when bracket from darkside arrives.
