Lowering GT TDI
« on: January 29, 2013, 07:04:48 pm »
Is there anything to look out for/awkward to remove when dropping a MK5 on springs.. iv lowered all my cars on springs or coilovers but never a Golf. Just when i did my A4 B6 ended up having to change all 4 upper control arms! Nightmare..

Cheers
