Tobes49 Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 Did it poke a nice hole in the gearbox and dump the oil out? The Diff is rivited to the crown wheel these rivits break and go round the diff housing smashing holes, Only happens to some cars and VW will not give you a penny towards it!
