If his axle is making all that noise I think the nut is loose because the outer roller bearing failed. What scares me is his report of the axle backing out. If the nut is still tight, the hub is not loose, then I don't think the axle came out.

Just might be a loose CV joint.

Shawn you really need some one that has experiance on these swing arms give you some one on one help. Maybe a local VW repair shop.

Yes the flat head phillips screws keep the rotor on the hub. Use an impact driver if you can't get these loose with a large screw driver.
