[Vwdiesel] 2 blown intermediate shaft seals

[Dan Cotter]

I have gone through 2 intermediate shaft seals in about 100 miles.  I am
doing something wrong or is it best to use dealer seals?

Is the shaft broken??
I have had 2 engines with such failure. The collar on the front of each
shaft was broken which allowed it to travel fore and aft. It was not obvious
from the front perspective--need to move it around and check it out.
