Been doing commercial vehicle body building for about 12 years prior to that vehicle mechanic (I hate the term technician)
-
I wound up buying a used subframe in the end. Everyone I spoke to was doing the sucking of lips thing when I suggested they attempt to break off the bloody seized wishbone bolts..Had to be done though, the car was bloody lethal under heavy braking on ruts or uneven roads in general... Plenty of brown trouser moments till those got sorted out. Of course,it kept passing the MOT...
My subframe has a hole on one side apart from that it looks good when you look through the hole you can see it has rusted from the inside out thought it was best to get one while they're available from Vw classic parts you can order direct so you don't have to go through VW heritage and wait three weeks

I never went that way. Maybe I'm too old, maybe I just think I don't drive a track car, on a track. OE all the way for me.I no wot you mean with OE/OEM I really wanted the vibra technics ones but the subframe cost me a lot I know they're a good upgrade over stock fitted some to a mate corrado about seven years ago

Had these fitted a couple of years back. Hard to compare against original vr6 bushes because the originals were massively old and worn out, but the r32 bushes are great. Nice and precise.I got powerFlex on at the moment I will be glad to get rid of them all polyurethane bushes I've fitted for one reason or a nether ( sh!t ) have been removed

Is that somewhere near Old Trafford? She just didn't give a ****. Mumbled something about being sorry, but immediately caveated it by saying she was told she could park there. So it couldn't possibly be her fault. She'll think twice next time.Yes mate next to man united

Yeah I used to get this when I lived in Aylesbury, hence my decision to move back to a village, when it happened to me I used to call a mate with a land rover, one day we were just hitching the chains up to drag it down the road and they came out very apologetic, same as your idiots, oh we didnt know... yes they did, they just didnt give a sh1t!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
