MK7 rear diff change advice

Postby Jimyjonz » Thu Apr 27, 2017 5:34 pm

Hi,
I've got a MK7 LWB I'm converting to a camper, however it's the 5 speed 100ps version with a 5.xx rear diff and is pretty much screaming at motorway speeds. Does anyone know if anyone offers a diff change at a reasonable price? I'm based in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire so would need to be not too far from there. Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers

Better off buying a 115 six speed, nicer drive altogether!

A 4.27 diff would be better for motorway work

Does this train stop on Merseyside?

Thanks for the reply, I've already purchased and begun work on the 100ps van, it was very cheap for the miles (57k) so I think I'll stick with it. Do you know of anyone who actually does the diff swaps for a decent price?
