Skoda fabia2 1.9 TDI PD BSW gearbox replacement

Featured Replies

Hello my gearbox bearings packed up other week and I require a new gear box for my car, from my understanding there is several gearboxes that can fit my engine

Gearbox codes

JXY (fitted to my car when brought)

JXZ

JEJ

JEP

HZP

All are 5 speed manuals, I’ve brought a JXZ gearbox with 100k on it I’m hoping I’m correct and I’ve brought the correct one and it will fit my engine?

My car spec

Skoda fabia2 (2008) hatch 5J

Elegance trim

1.9 TDI PD 105BHP

engine code BSW

original gearbox fitted JXY

the bolt patterns are the same, i've done this on my 2013 fabia 1.2 tsi from a mfx to a lmg gearbox looking at the picture everything is the same even the clutch fork for the pressure plate. Personal suggestion buy cv grease and new gasket btween the diff output shaft and the driveshaft, also replace the oil till the gearbox is on the ground, is easier to remove all te old oil, if you're doing the job yourself, use an engine stand similar to this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/374957660842 is a game changer, also you don't have to drain the gearbox oil in order to remove it because it's sealed. A usefull video for a DIY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAckIDFUVfM&list=LL&index=14&t=1637s

personally i've founded easyer than the video first time that I've done it it took me 6h without big trouble to complete everything

I got it fitted at last and works perfectly I can confirm the JXY gearbox fits a BSW engine and pulls through the gears very well, got nice bottom end torque and a longer overdrive in 5th.

for those who have a BSW engine and looking for a compatible gearbox I can confirm JXY and JXZ fit.

So from my understanding looking online the JXY gearbox is more of a sports feel so higher rpm and JXZ gearbox is more low end high torque ideal for toeing and under load.
