A4 gearbox plug/bolt problem!
Hi, i have just fitted a gearbox to my 1998 a4 tdi 5spd manual rhd. I have removed a bolt/plug from the drivers/ o/side of the box thinking it was the filler plug!
I have now found the correct filler plug and have checked the oil etc,.
The problem i now have is: Have i done any damage by removing this plug?
I have attached a couple of pics hoping that someone may identify it and tell me what it is for and if i can safely replace it ?
Regards and thanks for looking,
Alun J

Well , does it go back in easily? If it goes in back & it shifts good you will probably be good. If you have a difficult time getting it back in it is possible something inside has come out of place.
Looking at it it looks like it holds something in place though.
