Well something has managed to completely eff up my oilpan. Now i need a new one. Are there any pans that fit from any other engines, or am i stuck looking for one off an old wx in some junk yard (or paying audi prices)?

Oh and yah... and besides the stick linkage what are the possible causes of the car not being able to go in gear (actually out of gear, it is stuck in second... the gear it was in when my oilpan was smacked). The stick is completely loose, and just floats around with no resistance.


Thanks,
Jason

The shift lever probably popped out of the socket under the shift boot. So you'll have to remove the boot and all the plates that the lever is mounted with, and pull everything out, clean, lubricate, and reinstall. Not a difficult job at all. Buy yourself some coffee and a paper with the change you'll find in there too!

Got a oil pan from a 200tq.
~$100

Bluegrass audi wanted $480 for back glass (effing schmucks), so i called chris at force 5 and he came through for me with an amazing deal.
~$60

Makes things seem not so bad after all :)
