Where to go for rare VDub tranny?

Posting for a friend at work:

Where to find a tranny for '97 VR6 (6cyl), 5 speed. Tranny code “CCM”. Apparently the tranny is the same for '94-'99 models.

Apparently one of the gears has “ground through the case” and now she’s leaking 1/2 qt. of oil / day.

Anyone know of a good place to find this?
Anyone know of another VDub with the same tranny?

Junkyards are out, he’s called every one - not enough junk VR6’s around here.

KTHX

if this belongs in WTB (which I didn’t think so) please move

justin6h on the barf can prolly hook her up, he has a yard in arizona that supplyes the engines and such that he auctions on ebay

search vwvortex.com, you can find plenty of them on there used, if your going that route. theyre not as rare as you think on there

or… if you wanna go all out.

any 02a vr6 tranny will fit, but some have differnt gear ratios… Nothing drastic.

UPDATE - He found a place that’ll rebuild it w/a good case (they have) for ~1200.

Hey probably could get a VR6 transmission with a Quaife or Peloquin already installed for $1000. Rebuild shops around here in my experience are too overpriced.

He’s happy with the place he found and it’s not my car.

I’ve mentioned all of the options posted to him, and he’s happy.

Thanks though.
