Where to find oil filter housing gasket, mk3 vr6?

[merc]

all of them are available from vw, i know because i ordered and recieved them the other week, then ordered spares a few days ago.

don't know who you spoke to at vw or which dealer but talk to daniel at bayfords, 9471 5550

Your right, I just got off the phone with Daniel and he's ordered me in the gasket... Seems that 021115446 is NLA but 021115446A is still available... Obviously the original guys I spoke to at vw missed that one

Dan at Bayford is a champ and Loon from Camden is alright too. I've also had great dealing with Rick and Dean at Volkspower in Melbourne. I haven't bought from Loon but met him at a Melbourne VW show, and he was not only very informative but willing to shoot the breeze about his passion for VW's. Like all people in the business these guys know their stuff and are happy to help.

I don't work in the auto industry, but I also know that after 20+ years of tinkering on VW's in Qld and Vic that the best way to deal with any parts dealer or similar is to be armed with the correct info and get ready to absorb their insights and advice if on offer, these guys are generaly uber busy, and although they will help out, they also have a business to run.

I am not defending anyone here but after many years and many friends in the same area of interests, it can't hurt to show some courtesy all round. I've only ever dealt with one pure tool in my time and they don't have a shop anymore-nuf said
