Wanted 4.63:1 diff or CWP for MK5 6 stud

[Mark_C]

Hi all,
I am looking for a 4.63:1 diff to suit my 1997 MK5 2.5TD

It has the single wheel 6 stud axle on 15” wheels.

Have converted this to a camper and want to explore more of Oz, but would prefer to do the long journeys at under 3500rpm as the noise is unholy.

Would need to post either to Australia, or to a mate in Essex who could send it on to me.

These are really hard to find here, unless one from a MK6 fits?

I'm in Oz and managed to find one. Need to find wreckers and ask for picture of vin plate and check there for diff ratio. I noticed that a lot of wreckers don't know what diffs they have.

mk6 (apart from TDCi with Dana axle) is the same
