Dieselgeek has been reuniting VW owners with their first gears for quite a while!

Repair the damaged or missing relay ball on your 2000-2007 Mk4 and early Mk5 shift lever with Dieselgeek's innovative bell crank relay socket.

When your relay ball bushing develops a flat spot or disintegrates you will find that it is hard to get into first gear without pushing the shifter stick hard to the left. You might even readjust your shifter to enable you to get first and second gears but that makes it darn near impossible to get fifth gear.

The dealer alternative to this repair kit is to buy a new shifter shaft assembly for around $100 and then drop the exhaust, heat shield and shifter box to install it. To install this part you only have to remove the center console* inside the cabin and push the part into the steel bell crank to the left of the shifter stick. Just make sure to remove any soft rubber remnants of your old relay bushing before you install this part. This custom bushing is machined in the USA from ultra durable plastic material. Guaranteed for as long as you own your car!

If your 2000-2006 Mk4 car needs these bushings then it probably needs the Solid Stick SHAFT bushings and First Gear Getter, too. Get them all in the Deluxe MK4 Shifter Bushing Kit.

Fits the following years and models with five or six speed manual transmissions:

  • 2000-2007 VW Golf, GTI, R32, and Rabbit
  • 2000-2007 VW Jetta, GLI
  • 2000-2010 VW New Beetle (All)
  • 2006-2007 VW Passat
  • 2003-2010 VW Touareg
  • 2006-2008 VW Eos
  • 2002-2007 VW Phaeton
  • 2000-2005 Audi A2
  • 1999-2006 Audi TT
  • 1999-2007 Audi A3, S3 and A3 Cabriolet

Like we mentioned before, you might also want to look at theDeluxe MK4 Shifter Bushing Kit since there is a good chance you will also need the Cable Saver bushing kit and the Solid Stick Shifter Shaft bushings if you need the First Gear Getter.

One Mouse to Bind Them, in the Long Hours of the Desk
Color: Graphite, Pattern Name: Mouse
It was the winter of the endless scroll, when the days in River Grove stretched thin and pale as old parchment and the light from the monitor became the only sun we knew, that my old mouse—poor, faithful thing—began its slow betrayal. Clicks faltered like the last breath of a dying Rohirrim steed; the wheel spun loose and reckless, sending spreadsheets cascading into chaos as though the very order of Middle-earth had unraveled; the cursor wandered with the aimless grief of a man who has lost his king. I sat there in the dim room above the garage, wrist aching like the shoulder that once bore the weight of Andúril, staring at the screen while deadlines crept closer, silent and inexorable as the shadow over Mordor. Then the Logitech MX Master 4 arrived, graphite-dark as the armor of Isildur’s line, shaped not for haste but for endurance, its curves rising like the hills of the Shire remade for the hand of a weary scribe. I took it up and felt the weight settle—not heavy, but certain, as though the mouse itself understood the gravity of long labor. The MagSpeed wheel turned under my thumb with the smooth inevitability of the Anduin in flood, ultra-fast when the document must race to its end, precise when a single pixel demanded mercy. The haptic feedback thrummed beneath my fingers like the deep pulse of the earth when the Ents march—subtle, insistent, alive. Every scroll, every gesture carried the quiet authority of a thing forged to outlast lesser tools. It paired without ceremony—Bluetooth to the laptop, Logi Bolt to the desktop—crossing between machines as swiftly as the Eagles bore Gandalf from the tower, no fumbling, no oaths sworn in frustration. The side buttons waited like loyal vassals: one to summon the hidden application switcher, another to gesture across screens as though drawing maps of realms unseen. The gesture button itself became my quiet command—thumb pressed, fingers sweeping, and windows arranged themselves in obedient array, the way the hosts of the West might have arrayed themselves upon the Pelennor Fields. And when the battery whispered low, the USB-C cord drank from the wall like a pilgrim at the fountains of Imladris, three hours of life from a single minute’s charge. I have worked with it now through the gray mornings when the snow muffled every sound outside, through the late nights when the house slept and only the cursor moved, through the sudden urgent revisions that once would have left me cursing the heavens. It does not slip. It does not tire. It endures, as the light of Eärendil endures above the storm, a small fierce companion against the gathering hours. If your days are measured in documents and deadlines, in the slow turning of wheels both literal and metaphorical, take this MX Master 4. It is not mere plastic and circuit; it is covenant between hand and machine, a shield against the tedium of the long watch, the fellowship your desk has hungered for in its quiet exile. Ten stars out of five, though the heavens ration light to fewer. I would carry it into the Cracks of Doom itself and fear no misclick. 🖱️🧙‍♂️📜🌑

Almost Perfect
Color: Graphite, Pattern Name: Mouse
If you are looking for a quiet mouse, this is it. I was skeptical about the "ergonomics" but find that it is much more comfortable for me than the more traditional design for left and right clicking. Simple moving seems fine but its weight is a bit excessive for lifting for repositioning in tight spaces. It is difficult to lift without activating the button on the haptic pad, even set to require firm pressure. A bit more contour on the right would solve this nicely to allow lifting the mouse without repositioning your hand. The forward and back buttons may be a bit awkward for some people. I'm slowly adjusting. Actually, each mouse I've owned needed a bit of getting used to. Side scrolling doesn't always work as it seems it would. Frequently, it scrolls vertically like the "normal" scroll wheel depending on the program. Haptic feedback is not a commonly used feature yet, however, Windows will be slowly adding haptic features to later updates from what I've read. I keep the setting on the lowest haptic feedback level and for what it functions on so far seems natural and not intrusive. There are many adjustments and customizations, too many to go into since I haven't played around with most. So far, even with what may seem like a lot of negative thoughts, I love this mouse. It would be five stars if lifting to repositioning in tight spaces was easier.

Dependable, Reliable

As advertised. Logitech, best mouse for your hard-earned cheddar! It’s not that the (years) old Logitech mouse failed in any operational way, it just got that gummy, sticky surface texture that’s impossible to remove. While shopping for a replacement I noticed an off-brand mouse/keyboard combo and thought, “hey, 2 for 1”…mistake. All was well for about three weeks, long enough that when the gremlins arrived I didn’t immediately associate the new hardware. For the purposes of this discussion, gentle reader, know that I run legacy (what I affectionately refer to as, “Lazarus”) builds. Rigs that started life running Windows Vista/7, died, and that now, resurrected, run 10 and 11, and all that that implies. So, when a mouse started stuttering, of course I thought it was a gremlin in the machine, right? I spent more days than I am comfortable sharing with you pouring over processes and background apps, and registry trims…before Accam’s Razor suggested I eliminate the mouse as a variable. Changing the battery was ineffective, but when I swapped in the ooold Logitech…Yahtzee/Bingo/Booyah…smooth and precise…butter! All I needed was a new Logitech mouse. So, if you’re here you likely are having mouse issues of your own, or you just need one that works…this is it! 😉

Hey, it works well. Just plug it in and you are ready to go. Only issue, minor, no light or color coding on back to indicate on or off.

Smooth and ergo nice mouse.
Size: 1 Pack, Style: USB Receiver, Color: Swift Grey
I needed this little thing quickly and got it within 2 hours of ordering. It was only an extra five bucks to get it now. Would have burned more than that in fuel. Works exactly as I would have expected. Perfect.
