What's this called? Gearbox related
« on: May 23, 2016, 10:17:04 pm »
Hi people have t had no luck as of yet on the mk4 forum so hoping someone on here will know.

whats this little gold colour ring called or if you can even buy it separate? It's sits on the drive shaft flanges that connects the shafts to the gearbox. Pics will show you what I'm on about.

Here's the flange with the part on



Here's the part in question



The one in the pic is the good one it's the other side one it has broken into two parts.

Removed one from a tdi hoping it would be the same but sadly the diesel one is a bigger diameter.

Any help would be great as I'm pretty much stuck without it.
