T4 syncro bearing driveline problem

[Jezza]

Yes, I definetely remeber the whine of the Ford taxis. This is more like the sound my machine makes. It is constant from a standing start getting louder as you drive faster. I live in Geraldton WA. There is no VW dealer here. I think the best way is to take it VW first maybe in Perth. What do you think?

I hope you don't have to replace the crown wheel & pinion.
