	Hi jcstuckinmuck The part number for the intermediate bearing is : 293 521 351 and although the list price was £124ish the last one that I purchased ( last year ) was 65-80 I think. Obtainable from VW Van Centre. Same part number through whole range to 95. Some do get listed on eBay.de ut as you are terminal then VW direct is the way to go? Cheers

	Thanks for that i will give it a try on ebay.de and do some more hunting around, got to get the lt fixed soon, iam missing it already, when i broke down, i managed to fill the remains of the bearing housing with rope and lots of grease, it took two and half hours to get home 8 miles at 5 mph, kept stopping and adding grease and checking the rope,it did the trick!!!!
