You are absolutely right - the AOS is just right there staring you in the face... But mine is less than a year old And yes it was a bear to get to, especially with my extra large hands.


If I hadn't done it already, I would also recommend tiptronic owners replace the passenger side differential output shaft seal as part of this job. This is another very easy fix, and from my research it looks like most of them eventually leak. Mine certainly did. With the transmission out, this is also a good time to refresh your differential oil - mine was really nasty when I redid the seal and the fluid last year.
