FishWick 21 Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 All of the chain parts are made by SACHS if you get them from VW. The GSF chains are FEBI which aren't as good. The total price for all of the parts is around £200. I would urge you to use the MK4 upper tensioner 021 509 109E and the corresponding tensioning bolt 021 507 109B as they last indefinitely.There are a couple of pdfs and diagrams and also a worn chain noise wma here:- http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kevin.hayward/pics/I know a good deal about this, having done it recently, so get back to me if you need any more info.In theory the Galaxy parts should be the same but personally I'd get them from VW, just in case![ Edited Fri Jun 11 2004, 06:59PM ] Link to post Share on other sites
