Hello again, any tips on removing the small bush from the end of the propshaft on a 300TDi. I am replacing the rubber donut also. Unfortunately don't have any pullers!
Cheers

M8 (I think) bolt, through a socket deep and large enough to act as a puller.

I used a broken hacksaw blade, held ( tightly) with a pair of molegrips and sawed through the rubber bush then the outer metal bush. Took a while but it was quite easy, but dont cut too far. You need a good torch to see up the bush at the cut. Then squeezed the bush end with the mole grips and out it came.
