Same problem here, hope these new ones from parts4vws fit better. They are sold as 90's for the A1.
Should know this week.

90mm outer will fit. Some rebuilders dont watch what size the outer is. They look the same. You can also find some 80mm, setups. Might go faster , for a while. MM

Sandro, the only one that I've blown through on track, was an inside CV joint. Never lost an outer, but always replace both 1/2 shafts every season.

Regrease the new ones. Some come very dry. Mobil one synthetic grease or the Valvoline Syn grease works well . Repack evry 10 hrs. MM

The new GKN's I just received from parts4vws fit just fine.
(Unless those were 100mm spindles I tried them on.)
Using a synthetic grease here and in the wheel bearings.
