085 Bearing issue noise on start up

[chris27]

Ive got a 1.4 with an 085 box. last winter there was a bit of a squeak on start up for about 10 seconds but this was only when the temp was almost 0. It stopped when summer was here and it was a bit warmer but the past few days, when it has been colder, its started to squeak again on start up. Ive done a search and everyone says the boxes are crap but does anyone have a vag manual for this box?? Im thinking i can repair it. Will it be the input bearing nearest the cover end? And can it be done without removing the box from the car, or do the bearings have to be pressed?? Thanks

when you say squeak you mean on the clutch bearing or just 'a squeak' in general ?

if it was only when cold now worse it's probably an alt/pas belt

Its pretty loud and varies tbh. For example today it wasnt making any noise, but after a 5-10 min journey it was noisey when i got to work. Is def coming from the box aswell.

Does it change when you operate the clutch?

Nope
