Technical details
- OEM part number: 02M-409-208.
- Application: compatible six-speed manual-transmission differential assembly.
- Selection depends on the transmission configuration, including PR codes G0K or MR0 where specified in the fitment table.
- The 2005 Jetta application is limited to vehicles through VIN 9M-5-149999.
Common reasons to replace
Replacement is appropriate during transmission disassembly when the original plate / washer is missing, distorted, cracked or visibly worn at its contact surfaces. It may also be needed when rebuilding an assembly that has suffered internal damage or when restoring the correct factory component arrangement.
Gear noise, poor shifting or metal in the lubricant can justify a transmission inspection, but those symptoms alone do not identify this part as the cause. Inspect the associated gears, bearings and mating surfaces before reassembly. Confirm the transmission code and the part's position in the factory diagram; use the applicable workshop procedure for assembly order and adjustment.
