Hi mate I’m sure someone else will confirm (as I could be wrong) but I’m sure the easiest way is to use an MYP coded box from a Passat 1.6TDi and swap the cups over from your box. However I don’t think the cruise or gear display will work when in 6th.

[mention]Lister79 [/mention] and [mention]gidyon06 [/mention], can you confirm that for a 1.6 L TDI, you were able to install a 6-speed MYP gearbox with only a swap of the flanges? Any other parts needed? Is your MFD reading the 6th gear and is your cruise control working? And what plate is the Caddy? Cheers and thanks from Germany :)

@eph3
This is correct dude, and it won’t show 6 but cruise control works fine.
No other parts were needed but you will need to adjust your gear selector

Hi sorry to hijack mine doesn’t show 6th and the cruise control doesn’t work in 6th either. Anything I can do to fix this?
It’s a 2014 Cross Caddy 2.0TDI

So at the moment I haven’t found anyone that can change anything in the ecu so that 6 is recognised.
I will get out in my van today and try the cruise in 6th I am sure it did work.

Thanks for the confirmation of the install! This summer I'll probably make the swap. Did you get a chance to check cruise control in 6th?
