First Gear - Ratio

Recommended Posts

TT205

I've looked on the two gear calculator spreadsheets that are linked to via this site, but each has a different ratio down for the 1.6 gti first gear - which is correct?

 

One says 3.31 and the other says 3.25

Both of them. ;)

 

In the Haynes it's got the BE 1/5 as having a 3.308:1 1st gear for the XU5J

And for BE 1/5 and 3/5 it's 3.251:1 on the XU5JA and XU5JA/K.

So depends what year your car or gearbox is.
