About this product

A 09G that howls on the highway or gives up a gear after the fluid turns gray usually has a gearset problem somewhere behind the valve body. This is a remanufactured rear planet assembly for the Aisin TF-60SN six-speed, the transverse automatic that Volkswagen codes 09G, 09K and 09M and that BMW and Mini list as 6F21WA. It has been cleaned and inspected and is ready to drop into a rebuild of a Jetta, Tiguan, Golf-platform car or a Mini Cooper automatic.

What the rear planet assembly does in a 09G

The TF-60SN gets six forward speeds from a single front planetary set feeding a compound rear gearset. The rear assembly is the busiest part of the gear train: depending on which clutch drives it and which brake holds it, it turns out several of the forward ratios and reverse. This unit carries 12 pinion gears in total, and it ties into the K2 clutch through a 52-spline hub and into the B2 brake through a 56-spline hub. The drive transfer gear on the assembly has 53 teeth with 5 grooves, and the sun gear has 30 teeth with 1 groove. Those counts are what you match against your old part.

Symptoms of a worn 09G rear planetary

How to confirm it before you buy

Transmission Digest describes the valve body and its solenoids as the troublesome area of the 09G, and most shift complaints start there, not in the hard parts. Check fluid level and condition, read live data and stored codes, and pressure test before you pull the unit; our guide to reading transmission live data and the slipping diagnosis guide cover the steps. A gearset is the likely cause when noise follows vehicle speed in every gear or when metal shows up in the pan. On the bench, spin every pinion, check pinion end play and look closely at the bushings and thrust washers.

Fitment

The listing covers the 09G, 09K and 09M (AWTF60SN), the AWTF62SN and the 6F21WA. That family went into the 2007-up US Jetta, the 2009-up US Tiguan, the 2003-2010 Transporter T5, many Seat, Skoda and Audi models, and Mini Cooper automatics. Internal parts did change across these codes and model years, so count the splines on your K2 and B2 hubs, the teeth and grooves on the drive transfer gear and the sun gear teeth before ordering. If you are unsure, send your year, VIN and transmission code and we will check it. More TF-60SN parts are listed from our shop by transmission page, including the 09G valve body with solenoids.

09G Planetary: common questions

Does this fit a 2010 Jetta 2.5 automatic?

The US Jetta automatic of that era uses the 09G six-speed, which this assembly is listed for. Internals changed between codes and years, so match the K2 hub (52 splines), B2 hub (56 splines), drive transfer gear (53 teeth, 5 grooves) and sun gear (30 teeth) on your old part, or send your VIN.

Is this the front or the rear planetary?

It is the rear planet assembly, the compound set with 12 pinion gears that connects to the K2 clutch and the B2 brake. The front planetary is a separate single set.

Will it fit a Mini Cooper with the 6F21WA?

The 6F21WA is the BMW/Mini code for the same Aisin TF-60SN family, and it is listed for this assembly. Compare the spline and tooth counts against your original before installing.

My 09G shifts harshly. Do I need a planetary?

Usually not. Harsh or erratic shifts on the 09G are most often valve body and solenoid problems. A planetary is the fix when there is speed-related noise, a mechanically lost gear or metal in the pan.

What fluid and relearn does it need after install?

Use the ATF VW lists for your transmission code, fill and check at the level plug at the specified temperature with a scan tool, then reset adaptations and road test through every gear.
