novice1976 2 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Hi allI have just noticed an oil leak (gearbox end) on my 95 vr6 golf and after replacing sump gasket the leak is still there.Im about to remove the gearbox and would like to ask if the flanges on the driveshaft going into the box need to be renewed as will be draining box oil as been told easier to remove both shafts.cheers robPs Im a complete novice to golfs so any help would be great.

Lukey. 381 Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 It's easier to remove the diff cups to get the box out yes, but it's not necessary, I didn't on mine and it took a bit of to and fro but did it in the end, make sure you can get the fill hole out if the box before you attempt anything though. If you can't get that out you won't be able to put any new oil in. Link to post Share on other sites
