My 2000 Passat (167,000 km, 4cyl turbo, leather, auto, sunroof, etc.) was stolen on a few weeks ago. The police found it the day after. Best car thieves ever, I have to say, as there was absolutely zero apparent damage other than the door lock was "punched" and the ignition lock destroyed...

I've seen torque specs for the inner tie rod, which I assume are the large (slightly larger than 1 1/5") nut. I can't imagine how it would be possible to gauge the torque on that nut. Do I just tighten it very firmly?

Behind the torque converter oil seal there is a type of thrust washer the shop manual refers to as a bearing ring. There are two flat edges and other parts are contoured round to fit the circular opening. There is an oil passage hole on the right hand side where the seal and Bearing install...
