Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Wondering if anyone knows if part numbers 021 103 051A and 021 103 051C are interchangeable? My engine code is BDE and 02M transmission.

    The first link shows:
    021 103 051C VAG
    021 103 051A VAG

    Dimensions are the same for both.

    But second one "C" is "left hand twist" with arrow pointing left

    First one "A" doesn't specify direct of twist.

    The one in my car is "A" and has no arrow.

    This parts diagram for 2003 4 Motion BDE engine also shows "C"

    Cheers

    I have no knowledge of the Mk4 engine but the suffix on the part no. in my experience indicates a later/modified/improved design.
    If it was mine, I would install the later 'C ' part.
    Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.
