GEARBOX CODE LOCATION

Here's the list of the different codes with the ratios etc.

Thanks Nige. Those look like info on the 6N > onwards boxes. Do you have the same for 86C 085 boxes?

Those are from Elsawin and it only starts from 1995 for the 6N

Ah yes, if you keep clicking next page on my top link then you get to the same thing you have PDF's of :-D

Here is the layout of the gear sets

Anyone got any data on the 5 speed box fitted to the later formel e? I can only see the 4 speed on that German site.

It won't show up on Elsawin as it only covers from 1994/5 onwards :(

Boooooo!

I'm sure there used to be another guide somewhere that had them all in but I can't find it now

anyone knows the gear ratios of CEE?

I know it comes with the 1.05cc engine AAU, but I can't find any ratios for this box... only for AYZ and AHZ for that same engine

If you go to www.vagcat.com you need to register but that's free, then you can get the individual gears #'s of teeth and then work out the ratios, unfortunately it's a pre 95 box so the details are'nt given in elsawin :(

Hi here,
So I've produced ▲ this ▲ file that regroups all known 085 gearboxes and information about them. 
Only rule is please do not modify it and then advertise it as your own... that's all
Hoping it will be of use to you guys 🙂
