Can someone tell me if this rubber washer thing should sit right inside the speedo housing as it doesn't look like it will fit. If it doesn't then where does it go. Currently got gearbox oil running out so clearly something's not put back the way it's meant to be.Cheers  ________________________________________ 1999 GTi-6 (china blue)1999 Rallye (black) |

I suspect your driveshaft seal is too far in or damaged.The seal sits behind that big rubber donut. It needs to sit flush with the three upstands on the face, or at least that's how i did my last one. ________________________________________ I'm Si btw Night Blue VW Golf GTD Bianca LBSC Rallye - Track/Road Slag Project Thread Sparkling Silver Mini Cooper D - Super Dooper  - (The other half's wheels) |

It was a brand new seal I fitted so hopefully not damaged but too far in may be possible. So does the rubber ring just sit where I've got it in the photo?________________________________________ 1999 GTi-6 (china blue)1999 Rallye (black) |

The rubber donut is for the driveshaft, not the gearbox.I can only suppose it's either a cheap seal or it's in a bit far.  ________________________________________ I'm Si btwNight Blue VW Golf GTD Bianca LBSC Rallye - Track/Road Slag Project Thread Sparkling Silver Mini Cooper D - Super Dooper - (The other half's wheels) |

The seals themselves should be flush with the housing, I usually use a rubber mallet to knock them home to avoid damaging them.Regarding the donut, as said its just a dust seal for the main seal, sits as you have it in the photo. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

I do tonnes of these both sides always change them when ever I do a clutch on anything French and always gently and evenly tap them flush. Never had a single one come back leaking. Did one on my red rallye Saturday too. ________________________________________ Black power baby!

The ones I bought from Peugeot were slightly different to the ones I took out. The original ones had a white toothed ring on it whilst the new ones didn't. I thought I had fitted it in the correct location however that would appear to not be the case. When I get back to it, I'll take another photo of the seal behind that rubber ring and you can all tell me if I've got it wrong.________________________________________ 1999 GTi-6 (china blue)1999 Rallye (black) |

I took this photo as a reminder of which way the clutch fork went back in and I'm pretty sure that was the new seal I had put in there....so this is too far in? Should it be flush with the outer casing? ________________________________________ 1999 GTi-6 (china blue)1999 Rallye (black) |
