But of course volkswagen has been using zf clutches since prehistoric times so although the gearbox may come from another manufacturer, there isnt a volkswagen anywhere that is free from ZF parts  |
While I don't doubt that, the VW DSGs are BorgWarner designs licensed by VW. Much like how Chrysler makes the 845RE transmission which is a licensed version of the ZF 8HP. In America, at least, that covers most of their transmissions. Some older VW automatic transmissions were made by Renault. Maybe they still make their manual transmission?
