I'm not sure about this, until recently, I never much
worked on Sciroccos, always had mechanics do the
really big stuff. Anyways, I had an old Camaro that
chewed up transmissions on a regular basis. I did a
swap once myself and reconnected the linkages wrong.
In fact, I got everything upside down. 1st became 2nd,
and 3rd became 4th. I reconnected the linkages and
everything worked out the second time.
