I have to pull the transaxle to take care of a nasty leaky main seal.  I'm going to do an oil and filter change and auto tranny filter and  fluid change as well.

What other things should I attend to while I have the transaxle out?  Do the CV joints need lubrication?  Should I replace the transaxle gasket and oil?  I thought about replacing the tranny seals, but the local VW shop guy said if they aren't leaking, then leave them alone.

I would appreciate any input that may prevent problems in the future or in other words, I would rather take care of it now then have to pull it again later.
