  1. On the MK4 ABS system, it is driven from the driveshafts not the gearbox. A common problem on this system was that abs belts would either snap or strech & then come off the driveshaft. The grinding could be 1 or 2 diff bearings collapsing in the gearbox.. Whereabouts are you Dan?

     

    As I have got a gearbox for sale if it is needed & your not too far away

  4. You can change the valve oil stem seals without removing the head, I have done loads of them but I have never heard of using compressed air to keep valves in place.

     

    Whereabouts are you? If your close enough I could give you a hand or do them for you
