Thrust Washers SOLVED. Thanks to RichieVR who has found the solution. The engine was built with 4 washers 2 marked 021635 & 2 marked 021637 this has now been replaced with just 2 021105635B this has been confirmed by the factory 23/08/00†Now you replace the set of 4 washers with a set of 2 new washers. Thanks to everyone who tried to help, well done Richie. Best regards JJ

Anyone been down this road? 1992 GolfIII AAA engine. New crank ready to go in but, thrust washers don't match! Is it a VAG mod to swap the old 4off washers with the new 2off longer ones? VW tech have no idea an have supplied me 4off P/N 022-105-635 which are never goin' to fit. Any help and advise will be greatly appreciated. Regards JJ
