GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 6, 2007 or guide joint as vag call them , i'm off work soon so i might renew them (not happy with the passenger side, feels a bit notchy , if i push the wheel front to back i can feel the knuckle move) but where is the best to buy vag, gsf, ecp ? anyone had experience of any (gsf seem to be getting a bad rep on here lately) i think they work out about £32 +plus vat for a pair from vag cheers paul :wink: ps. anyone know what size ball joint splitter i need, supercharged ? thx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Took them back, whole stock was wrong, so i didn't get replacements. Let us know how much VAG charge as i'll order some too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 6, 2007 hi lee , just spoke to vag and they are £19.04 inc vat each all i hear is complaints about gsf,i've had a few things off them and i must have been lucky , i've checked gsf and ecp and there is only a few pounds price difference so i'll probably go with vag Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 6, 2007 Yeah deffo VAG - did they sell you new bolts too? - you need 4 per side plus one nut IIRC I've got a fork type splitted from halfords but I think it's a bit small for BJ's - the one's VAG use are type with a thread and nut.

Bought some CV boots from GSF for the S3, they both split during fitting. Going to the dealers more and more these days for parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted January 9, 2007 I got GSF ball joints for my G60 and they were fine. Still that was about 2 years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
