09G Master Rebuild Kit 2003-2013, new and ready to install. Fits the 09G. Ships fast from the USA.
The 09G is the six-speed automatic in a long list of Volkswagen and Audi cars from the mid-2000s: the Jetta, Golf and Rabbit, New Beetle, Passat, Tiguan, Eos and the Audi A3, among others. When one of these cars starts slipping between gears, flares on upshifts, sets ratio codes, or drops into failsafe and the fluid comes out dark and burnt, the clutches inside are usually done. This master rebuild kit carries the parts that wear in a 09G overhaul: friction plates, steel plates, the gasket set including the valve body and case gaskets, rubber seals and sealing rings, and a new filter.
Aisin builds this transmission as the TF-60SN; Volkswagen calls it the 09G, 09K or 09M, and the same family appears as the 6F21WA in the Mini Cooper. It gets six forward speeds from a compound planetary set controlled by three clutches (K1, K2 and K3), two brakes (B1 and B2) and a low one-way clutch. K1 is the driving clutch in first through fourth gear, so it sees more work than any other pack and is often the first to burn. Because every clutch and brake is applied by a solenoid-controlled hydraulic circuit sealed with rings and rubber, a high-mileage unit tends to have worn frictions and hardened seals at the same time. A master kit replaces all of them in one job, and the included steels mean you are not pairing new frictions with heat-marked plates.
Not every 09G shift complaint is a clutch failure. Sonnax lists erratic timing, failsafe, harsh shifts, ratio codes and even burnt clutches as results of worn clutch cutoff valve bores in the valve body (the 3-4 transition, K3 relay and 4-5 timing bores). Rebuilding the clutches without fixing that wear can burn the new packs, so test the valve body too; our Aisin harsh and delayed shift guide walks through how. Check the fluid against our ATF color and smell chart: material on the magnet and a burnt smell confirm worn frictions.
An intermittent no-forward is a special case. Gears Magazine documented a 09G Jetta where pressure, solenoid commands and an air check all passed, and the cause turned out to be a K1 drum whose center hub had separated from the outer drum. Spin the K1 hub against its drum during teardown; if it moves, replace the drum along with the kit, using our 09G clutch drum.
This kit is listed for 2003-2013 09G transmissions, including the 2005-2013 Jetta, 2006-2013 Golf and Rabbit, 2004-2013 New Beetle, 2006-2013 Passat, 2009-2013 Tiguan, 2007-2008 Eos 3.2L, 2006-2013 Audi A3 2.0L and the 2003-2009 TT, along with the related Mini Cooper 1.6L unit. Engine and model codes vary across that range, so match your transmission code or send your year and VIN before ordering. Later 2014-up units should use our 2014-2022 09G overhaul kit. More parts for this unit are on our Aisin transmission parts page.

The 2.5L Jetta with the six-speed automatic uses the 09G, which this kit covers. Confirm the transmission code on your car, or send your year and VIN for a check.
Yes. It includes friction plates, steel plates, the gasket set, rubber seals and sealing rings, and a filter.
This kit is listed for 2003-2013 units. For 2014-up 09G transmissions, use the 2014-2022 overhaul kit or send your VIN so we can match it.
One documented cause is a K1 clutch drum whose center hub has separated from the outer drum. It can pass pressure and solenoid tests, so inspect the drum during the rebuild.
Not always, but worn valve body bores and tired solenoids cause many repeat 09G failures. Vacuum test the valve body and replace solenoids that test bad.
Use VW-approved 09G ATF and set the level at the specified temperature. After the rebuild, reset the shift adaptations with a scan tool and complete a road test.
