This is really a pretty common tool these days, at least in my neck of
Ohio. I've seen them on the rack at my local FLAPS. You don't need the
tool number to buy it - It's a 12-point 8mm hex if i remember correctly.
When you buy the tool, then try to use it and find out that at one of
them was rounded out by the DPO, that's when you break out the
vicegrips.

replacement on hold until I can find the  correct
torx-style-but-more-splines tool to remove the axle shaft bolts.
Bentleys shows tool # 34-1291.  No Volkswagon dealers here in the
sticks.  Anyone have any suggestions where I may be able find one  today?
 Thanks.</bigger> <bigger>Jim</bigger>
