thanks alot for the info. will be looking to get the part this weekend. i will let you know how it goes. once this is fixed i can get on with the front suspension bushes, drop arms.... the list goes on and on. but there after 184,000 i cant complain to much. thanks again

thanks very much for a quick response. i have had this diagnosed by my local gearbox company. they put the car up an a ramp stuck it into sixth and started it up. with a screwdriver held up against the outer side of the intermediate shaft you could feel the vibration and almost pinpoint it by the noise. they would happily change the bearing for about an hour and a halfs labour but i have to get the right part from vw because its non returnable. if you could help me get the right part it would be a huge help and save my hearing!!!

can anybody tell me how to get the part number for the intermediate shaft bearing. i have a mk 2 1.9 tdi six speed. really finding it difficult without taking it apart
