You're a star, thanks for your reply. Another question for you, to do a 312mm brake upgrade, what exactly is needed apart from discs/pads?
White do you have a part number for the top mount you're replacing? Can it be done without taking the strut completely out (without disconnection the driveshaft), i think mine is definately knackered.

Ring Vag parts they sell them £7+Vat and yes its just the bearing part of the top mount and you need to remove the strut complete , dont remove the drive shaft, just undo the bottom ball joint off the arm (3 Bolts) and its then it drops clear!flyfs6 wrote:You're a star, thanks for your reply.

Because of that bush
