    Actually, it can be made to work fine on the Mk5 also but it takes a little modification. About 1.5 mm of spacer between the reg body and the retainer will keep the recommended torque from crushing and damaging the sealing o-ring and a little removal of some plastic from the saddle will stop the din wheel from binding.
    Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

    The OP asked if HE could use one....not if The Master could use one. (See why Awap is The Master?)
    Thank you to all who make this wonderful resource available and to all the thoughtful contributors.
