what the hell you doing with an angle grinder in there, anyway yes I have a TDi box with layshaft rattle, it is still on the motor so lots work to get it out, you realise it is a complete gearbox strip to get the 1st motion shaft out, Rick

Wow ! I think we have changed Alex's ways...
He's even insulting himself before we get chance to!

Where's the fun in that...:nenau


Now re the nick, do you have a pic, it might not be that bad, if it is in line with the shaft like a key way, might be ok, but if on the edge, could create a point where a crack could start, and then shear.
Depends how deep.

Most of the force on it is torque, ie rotational, with no side or bending force.
