Hi there,

The transmission will have to be removed and dismantled, there are special pullers and tools required to fully dismantle a gear box, so I would suggest that you purchase a work shop manual and study that section, often this is well beyond a home mechanic, so I would suggest that you make sure that you are confident before attempting this job.

Or consider a salvage yard for a replacement transmission. Call (619)444-2290 foe Autobahn dismantlers, talk to John or Sean
