Hi everyone, have a question regarding the crankshaft oils seal fly wheel side. is it the same as a normal 2wd t3 or different for the syncro? looked it up on the online VAG cat&dog and the cost didn't seem that exessive only around 14 uero's. went and saw a VW machenical workshop about one and he told me $160.00 because the syncro is different to the others. any one had any experience on this?
Cheers Phil |

If it is only the rear main leaking it is the same as 2wd and you will pay alot for labour to have the gearbox removed and a little for a seal. You can convert the pulley to the 2wd set up, I think all you need is a 2wd pulley and seal. Greg

The extra collar is a friction fit on to the pulley and it can be removed, it will then take the standard 2wd pulley seal. Have done this successfully before.

More info Phil, the 248a is the extra collar
that goes on the pulley and the 249a is the seal that is made of gold. You
could try removing the seal and getting a match at your local bearing and seal
supplier, just make sure it has the same amount of lips. Greg
