Content-Type:  text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1


Hello everyone.  I'm new to this list.  I have a 1988 Vanagon GL Wolfsburg w/Weekender Package, A/C, and Automatic Transmission.


I'm in the process of rebuilding my Automatic.  I have a dilema.  Two of the thrust washers (plastic) I need to replace have the part# 010-323-291B embossed on them.  The VW Dealer tells me this is a bad #.  The VW parts microfilm shows this part as 010-323-291, and is a metal washer.  No one around here can tell me if VW canned the plastic part for the metal part.


Can anyone on the list shed some light on this?  I need to know if it's ok to use the metal washer in place of the plastic one.


Thanks in advance.


Jim Bowen
