https://www.idparts.com/complete-clutch-conversion-kit-p-3860.html I used this clutch during the 5 speed swap. Very easy to use. No noises at idle. Even though the price has gone up significantly I'm sure the others have too.

I suspect anything that says audi is going to cost more and be harder to find. Stick with jetta wagon. Models newer than 2006 will have expensive emmisions equipment. First year wagon was 2001 but very few made. 2002 and 2003 best years with ALH engine. 2004 and 2005 with BEW a close...

Only difference is fifth is .744 and the older 02j are .756.

I have no axles. My post was 1 5 years ago.

1axles gone

I believe that dsg is unique to bew beetle. If it breaks you'll have to find one at the jy. I believe the specific axles are hard to come by. If it were a manual and less than a half day drive sure.
