I have a 1990 talon tsi. I had swapped a 2g trans into it and first gear seems to be fine but 2nd is hard to find and pops out. I swapped everything except the shift cables, they’re still from 1990. Could this be the cause of my issue with 2nd gear or is there no difference between the cable...

Make offer. 115xxx miles. 1990 awd dsm has some rocker rust. 2nd gear pops out sometimes. Starts and runs, but stalls when stopping. It could be the coolant temp sensor or because it needs to be tuned, I’m not sure haven looked too much into it. The car has been sitting for a few months. It has...

Sorry to post off topic on your thread. But I’m having a problem with my 90 tsi awd. Not long ago I took the wire harness out to inspect and repair where needed. The only wires I replaced were for the knock sensor and the injectors. I made sure all connections were good. Now that the harness in...
