    Hello all!

    Anyone here have creaking top mounts? Im useing KW V1 suspension on my Corrado VR6 -93

    I had oem top mounts they had creaking sound so i changed to powerflex that didnt help i think it got even wore.

    so Is there any solution to this? buy diffrent mounts? Or do i miss something on my suspension?. There is a video how it sounds on Eurocollective site.

    Don’t think you are going to find a new one. It look to be a hens tooth. There is a 2nd hand one on English eBay going for £45 or a seller in Germany is selling 2 for 20€ but one of those is definitely damaged either that or message lilfuzzer on the forum to see if he has a good second hand one. With the post to EU at min the way it is the one from Germany is probably the best option. 

    yeah i saw does on ebay, i made a bid on the 20€ one.

    That sensor in your hand is for earlier Corrado’s and has the wire attached to it that goes through the wings. Later ones had the sensor that you show from ecs that has a separate wire from the sensor and you plug it in on the hub. Your car should be fitted with the same type though so I don’t know why you have both types. What year is your car

    Separate wire not easy to find, part number 357927903A.

    I’d try a new sensors, I’m not sure of part numbers though, I’ve not had to do this. 
    If you've hade a lot of vibrations something could of broke or come loose. 

    Okej will try find one. I don't have a reader for fault codes. Mabye it just work to clear the code. I need to buy a VCDS VAG-COM

    Push in towards the gearbox, pull out towards the hub? Yes, the shaft has to lengthen and contract as the suspension elongates and compresses. The distance between the gearbox and hub varies in use

    I dont see it pull out towards the hub, it feels more on the inner cv/gearbox moves. When i push it i have a play for like 5mm, i dont have any play on the right side.

    I think to remove the shaft tomorrow and check it out.

    Update.

    Changed right driveshaft today, the old one fall in to pieces when it got removed 🙈

    I still have some knocking sound, I found out left driveshaft have some play when i push it out and in. The left shaft is new. Should that be any play?

    Jack the car up, put the steering on full lock left / right and push / pull on the CVs.

     

    Also look for signs of any interference marks where components could be touching

    Hello all

    I have this wierd knocking sound coming from my left side wheel.

    The sound comes when i turn left or right gear 1 and it stops when i press the clutch down.

    I have replace the clutch and release bearing 2 years ago.

    I have replace left driveshaft, wheel bearing left side and top mount

    Today i check right side and i cant hear any bad from wheel bearing or dirveshaft.

    I  used this Wheel bearing SKF VKBA 1491 - Driveshaft VKJC 1037 - Top mount Powerflex PFF85-239

    Now i have no idea what the issue is  mabye some gearbox problem?  Here comes 2 videos this is from today.

    It worked much better with old hub and i could torque it down.

    The abs ring touching slitly on the abs sensor but i move the sensor abit back.

    Now i have abs light on didnt have it when i used the new hub i guess the sensor is bad.
