Thanks, gregk24! I cant believe it either. My father-in-law didn't drive much and kept it garaged. I forgot to mention above that I also had the following service at the VW dealer: New fuel filter New driver door lock/unlock switch. Trav said to change the transmission fluid. I'm wondering...

I changed the front differential again after 250 miles, but this time with Lucas 75W90 full sythetic and the magnet looked the same as the first change. Greasy goo on the magnet. No large metallic particles. Advice?
