<< < (2/3) > >>

White Rabbit:
I experinced the similar problem a few weeks ago aftyer I lowered mine was getting a horrible knocking noise from the driver's side footwell took it back to where I got this collies fitted and found out that the anit-roll bar need to be tightned properly my argument was why wasn't this done in the first place

andeep:
I had the knocking noise as well. You need to get new subframe bolts as for some reason they can only be used once and need replacing when they are removed. Torque these to factory spec and it should go.

Any idea of the part number for the bolts and a rough idea of how much they cost?

White Rabbit:
Interested also

andeep:
Part numbers a bit of a bugger. I went to VW and asked them to order all the bolts for the subframe, and as usual they got the wrong ones. What you need to do is look at a copy of etka and also check the repair manual g5_40-4 and order the correct bolts.
