Can anyone out there help me out with some info on the gear ratios and final drive ratios of the VW automatic transmissions.

I've got some info on the type 3 auto tranny but I don't have anything on the kombi boxes.

I'm toying with the idea of putting one in a Eureka with a 12A Mazda rotary behind it to create a low slung cruiser.

Any info or directions to more info would be greatly appreciated.

Pretty sure you find its the same box as a Type 3.

Auto Transmission:
1st gear: ratio - 2.65
2nd gear:ratio - 1.59
3rd gear:ratio - 1.0
reverse:ratio2.5
Converter maximum torque multiplication - 2.5
Final drive 1700 engine - 4.45
Final drive 1800 engine - 4.36:jesus

Thanks for those (obviously) kombi figures.

Sounds like a type 3 auto might be more suitable due to the taller final drive.

Can you enlighten me on what is meant by "Converter maximum torque multiplication - 2.5 " please?

And what sort of selector linkages do they use or is it the same sort of setup as a manual box in a type 1 or type 3?

Thanks again,

PP.

The selector linkage in a Type 3 uses a solid cable set up from the left hand side of the gearbox.
