Hi,

I have also a lupo 3L and long thread about its modifications.

So do you get the fifth gear on or does it just change to neutral when fifth should go in? Changing the gears should not effect the gear changing mechanism. Did you check thegearbox functioning with VAG com adaptation and clutch creep settings. That will thell you where the fault propably is. Probably some misangliments of that gear actuator.

Why did you put shorter fitft gear ratio?
How long did it take to change the gear and did you have to take the gearbox out?
