Has anyone else ever looked up a part in ETKA or ETOS to find the part number, gone to Camelback VW or Bus Depot's web site, typed in the number, and been presented with a description for that part that doesn't...quite...seem....right? For example: the seal for the cover over the auto tranny shift governer. Round gasket thingy, right? ETKA calls it "003 325 381 - seal 90x3". Camelback and BD (apparently using the same VW database) both call this part number "washer". The price ($6-$7) is more in line for a gasket than a "washer", so it's maybe a mistranslation somewhere? I've run into it with a couple other things too.
