Tranny shop suppliers have these seals in the kits. However, they are not
quite right design wise. Give the dealer the money and be real careful about
placement. Be sure there is a clear path between the seals for the drip hole
in the housing. There are three raised spots on the outside of this seal.
They need to touch and clear space faces down to that hole. If the seals
leak there should be a drip so the oils do not mix. Also be sure to replace
the governor seal and be sure the housing and governor shaft is not worn.
This is usually the real cause of ATF getting into the differential. This
seal can also be changed with the tranny still in the van.

Does anyone have a better source for VW trans seals then the $38ea price for
the diff to trans body seals?
I know a few guys out there have better access to rebuilder suppliers.
Thanks Dan in NY
