Greetings.
I am one of those who has had the u-joints replaced by an oufit in
Vancouver, BC. Unfortunately it was not successful, still has a
vibration at 30 kph and at 60 kph. Had it sent back to the shop 3 times
to resolve, but no luck. This was done last fall. In the mean time I had
picked up a used shaft from a local wrecker to get me thru the winter.
It isn't perfect, but pretty good. I had heard somewhere that VW also
balanced the shaft on the vehicle during assembly. Don't know if this is
true or not.
I have a new vibration in the vehicle somewhere at 85 to 90 kph with the
driveshaft out. This is still unresolved.
