I have heard of good VW transaxle builders in Brisbane...

can't remember who they are...

but its a specialsts job... and expensive as these gearboxes/transaxle were built to last...
and high quality gearbox bearings are very expensive...

Use someone who knows VW transaxles/gearboxes..
it will work out better in the long run...

try dave.... [it doesn't matter where he is located]
