Show original supplier description
The USRT SMARTSHIFT2 Linkage Kit is designed to address the common issue of worn and sloppy shifter linkages in specific Volkswagen models. This kit provides all the necessary hardware for installation, aiming to restore a precise and engaging feel to gear selection. Drivers often report that factory shifter systems can become loose over time, yet still allow for gear changes, leading to a frustrating driving experience. This kit is specifically designed for A2/A3 chassis cars equipped with rod-shift transmissions. This includes most 4-cylinder Mk2 and Mk3 Golf and Jetta models, with the exception of those featuring the PG engine code. Vehicles powered by G60 or VR6 engines utilize cable-shifted transmissions and are not compatible with this particular linkage kit. The installation process details can be found in the provided installation guide. By replacing worn components with the SMARTSHIFT2 kit, drivers can expect a significant improvement in shifter feel, making their car more enjoyable to drive. The manufacturer promises that users will be amazed by the difference. For those seeking even further enhancements to their shifting experience, the MushMeister is available for positive clutch control.
