**Autofahren125** · 04-19-2008 02:10 PM

Changed the oil ( after 6500 miles ) last week, and rotated a tire.
This weekend, I finally installed my "Grounding Kit" that had been laying around the house for 2 years! Easy install.

Also changed out my rear differential oil this morning after hearing some "reports" that VW may have used tranny oil in the rear diff as well. My rear diff fluid was clean ( 21,300 miles ), with no noticeable metal shavings or dirt. However, the viscosity seemed pretty thin to me, almost like that of ATF fluid.

Easy to change.
Just got the special drain plug socket tool from Metal-Nerd for $25.00 and put in some Mobil One 75/90 synthetic gear oil.

**MyGLXtacy** · 04-19-2008 04:48 PM

**jeffgBMPr32** · 04-19-2008 11:09 PM

**BrewDude** · 04-19-2008 11:38 PM

Put an EIP cat delete pipe on...only to find out it's too short to mount up with my APR exhaust.

**JIMBO ROBERTS** · 04-20-2008 12:48 AM

Mine's finally back together: new trany case w/ new bearings, shimed up perfect (thanks Prestige Performance), along with a new clutch disc & throwout bearing, new VF dogbone, new front subframe, new dustshields, add a 4-wheel aling., I guess I should have bought that skidplate before I went skiing. It is nice to have it back on the road. Jimbo

**HJ47-guy** · 04-20-2008 04:00 AM

**stripethree** · 04-25-2008 02:42 PM

Walked by it getting into the GTI this morning; the R hasn't moved since autocross on April 13th. I need to put the driver front Flik back on now that I got the 615 plugged. Car looks odd with one polished Monte and three gray FTDs.

**BLU R32** · 04-25-2008 09:08 PM
