.then how is it done then?
loosen the set-screw on that locking plate and turn it and check for “play” ?then retightening it and leave it alone? 
well, tightened the bearing thingy. no luck. still noisy and my dif has started leaking again 
and there is in my opinion too much end-slack. no up and down. inly in and out
the oilseals are new,
soooo. need to source a new diff, a friend of mine recently parted a syncro. hopefully he has a diff for me
thank you!
well. i wrote “its done” but i’ll take that back, its never going to be done but the approval crap is done :p
good because i bought that one today 
got it real cheap. a leftover part . altho its only 8mm thick. but, perhaps a good thing, if it has made a path in the axle
anyhow, also bought a new wheelbearing today, 68mm one, fits perfect, and now my car is noisefree from the rear (as noisefree as a golf can get from the rear that is)
and fitted a 68mm pulley to my charger. whopping fun, altho i drive like an old grandpa
havn’t posted here in a month now. wow, times sure goes fast
car run still runs great, had some problems with the lambda at one point, but thats sorted (ground wires and crap)
i’m now using an Innovate Motorsports LC-1 Wideband O2 sensor. both to the ecu and to a gauge in the car. nice to actually see AFR levels
oh, and i’ve stumbled across a passat G60 syncro, which i bought for parts, this has ben converted to turbo. and has some nice parts on it, and another transmission (which i need, since my sync-rings close to toast between 1st and 2nd, and 4th a making noises while driving normally
so. things are happing in the background, altho i havn’t been too much in the garage lately
and i should really take som more pics soon
