8vtornado 0 Posted March 7, 2008 iv noticed my driveshaft damper on the o/s has perished and the outer has detached from the inner causing it to flop around and make occasional noise. my question is this; can you get a new one or do you have to get a new driveshaft? and where can i get a new driveshaft complete with damper from? and come to think of it, do i even need it? thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted March 7, 2008 cut mine off, it was just sliding around anyway as the paint is all flaking off the driveshaft, doesn't make any difference as far as I can tell, VR6's don't have them anyway, not sure you can even buy them from VW without a complete driveshaft, if you refit one then there are precise measurements about exactly where it goes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
