Vic,

You did not answer my last mail, so I like to ask you again:

This are gearboxes from South Africa:

ID number       094      094      094      091
ID character    AOJ      AFJ      AFJ      ?
for engine      1.8L     2.5L     2.6L     3.2L
 Power          70 kW    100 kW   100 kW   121 kW
 Year           > 89     > 91     > 95     > 88

1. gear         3.780    4.111    4.111    3.780
2. gear         2.060    2.333    2.333    2.060
3. gear         1.225    1.476    1.476    1.225
4. gear         0.850    1.023    1.023    0.850
5. gear         N/A      0.816    0.816    N/A
Revers          3.670    3.667    3.667    3.670
transaxle       4.833    4.833    4.571    4.830

Are the ID-numbers and character right in the table above? Is the gearbox
for the 4 Cyl. 70 kW engine a 5 speed? (BTW, the inline 4 fits the Diesel)

>The 094 series 5-speeds are $2200 ea. (available with either the 5cyl. or
>inline 4cyl. bell-housings).

As a comparison, the South African 5 speeds will cost DM 2,400.- in
Germany, including dealer's profit.
