vondribbley 0 Posted August 8, 2004 Having just put mine back in I don't recall having to "lock" it in. Just rotated it until the bolt holes lined up and then screwed the bolts in. Bentley manual says to replace gasket but I haven't bothered as they will come back off again soon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Are you talking about the drive flange, the bit that come out of the box and your inner CV joint bolts to? If so there is supposed to be a small metal circlip in the end of the flange, it sits in a wee ridge and when you put the flange back in(with a rubber mallet) the circlip locates into the groove inside the boxe and sticks solid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

olly elworthy 0 Posted August 10, 2004 you need to make up a puller to pull it in, one is shown in the haynes manual for a 16v golf,,, but thats an o2a box,, must be similar though!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
