Volkswagen / Audi 6-Speed Manual Gearbox RHN (MQ350 Platform) for Sale
If you need a strong and reliable manual gearbox for a turbocharged petrol setup, the RHN gearbox delivers exactly that. Volkswagen installed this transmission in the VW Golf VII GTI 2.0 TFSI (169 kW), where it handles high torque while keeping shifting precise and responsive.
Built for 2.0 TFSI Performance
The RHN gearbox works with EA888 2.0 TFSI engines, which produce strong torque from low rpm. Because of that, Volkswagen paired it with the MQ350 (02Q) 6-speed manual platform, known for durability and direct driving feel.
You get:
- quick and precise gear engagement
- strong synchros under load
- solid torque handling for tuned setups
As a result, the gearbox performs just as well in daily driving as it does under aggressive acceleration.
