    Hi.
    I was able to obtain a complete new (not reconditioned) drive axle for $173 so it seemed a lot easier to simply do a swap than a remove, clean, rapack, new boots and replace.

    In doing so, i discovered that the engine is a 2 litre as well with eng# AGG - bonus! We were sold it as being a 1.8litre.
    (I don't know Golfs very well this one being our first, so I'm a bit embarrased).
    119,000 klms on the clock. CL with everything except sunroof. Perfect interior although headlining is just beginning to come away in one spot. One rear window not working but I'm pretty sure its power related - not mechanical.
    This drive axle and one rear engine mount to do.
    Tiny little bit of rust at sill inside rear door opening (every second Golf we looked at had the same - must be a seam or something there).
    Rego to December. $5100. Its not the bargain of the century, but not too bad either for a Sydney car I think.
