Ok thanks, I had thought maybe that video was that shaft. I have the P/N of the seal from the other page and understand now and hopefully after a new clip and seal that nothing else is wrong gearbox wise and that’ll be it. I’m hoping rocks/pebbles/dirt didn’t go into that hole when the car went up the curb and slid through a few feet wide of decorative rocks .

No, that video is for the driveshaft assembly BTW, I would forget about the shaft as it should be perfectly fine..
The circlip I am talking about is #7) P/N 012 409 413 Circlip goes on the grove of #15) P/N 012 4009 343 Flange Shaft where the splines engage on to the differential hosing
On the post #10, in the picture you provided, the shaft has slipped out of the gearbox (after wacking the suspension) and you just have to reinsert the shaft fully into position and tap it so the circlip engages again into the #1) 012 409 121 Differential Housing.
However, you want to clean the surface of the shaft (where it rides on the oil seal) BTW, this is the perfect time to replace the oil seal #13 sorry but no P/N on your parts diagram for #13.. |
