Thanks again architex, iv seen some on ebay that claim to be rebuild using stringer parts around 350 for a pair of manifolds.
I think im just going to change both of them, i dont want this problem in the future with the other manifold.

Iv been looking about and i have found that audi do a repair kit for less than 20 pound a side. Although it doesnt replace the bearings it does repkace the linkage.
Im going to try this first, so i will report back once iv fitted them.
