Thanks.

This one has an opening, but as usual sooner or later one must go postal while
working with a VAG product.

I'll let you all know what is the outcome.
Later,

>Not sure on the NF, but recently we found a 3b to have a pilot that wasn't an
open cylinder. It was a closed end "cap" design, making the grease technique
totally useless. The pilot bearing removal tool was also useless as there was
nothing to get behind to pull on. We used a die grinder to slot it and broke
it out with a small narrow chisel.

those ever installed. I can think of no good efective method to remove this
design, as there is nothing via which you can apply removing force.
