** Mk5 Jetta '06 TDi Sport Suspension Refurb? **
« on: March 14, 2019, 08:49:31 am »
Hiya,

I'm sure its been answered before (but having trouble 'searching')  :thinking:.

Is there any recommendations for the front and rear suspension in terms of mounts/bearings - looking at giving my suspension a refresh when fitting a set of 30mm lowering springs.

Thank you in advance  :happy2:

Minimum you want to be doing is replacing the top mounts.

Maximum is full set of new suspension bushes.

Depends on what your budget allows and the current condition of your bushes.

Definitely looking at replacing the front top mounts/bearings.... Do I go with Genuine VW or Aftermarket mounts/bearings?

Is there anything on the rear worth replacing while the job is being done?

Budget is a bit tight!!!!

Thanks Again
