Default Re: 5 gear box in 6 gear car?

You could also try looking for the plate on the bell housing. W5xXXXX = 5 speed, W6XXXX = 6 speed. You could also look at the transfer case, a search should bring up some pics to show the difference.

If you do have a 5 speed gear box in your car, be sure your mechanic installed the popper rear differential.
US Spec cars use 3.545:1 for 5 speed cars and 3.303:1 for 6 speed transmissions.
