Title: MK5 Suspension Diagrams
Post by: andrewparker on December 21, 2011, 04:15:10 pm
Hi guys, I'm keen to learn a bit more about the suspension on the MK5 and I was wondering if anyone had any good diagrams illustrating the various components etc?

You will probably need someone with ELSAWIN or ETKA Andrew.

Andrew do you need front or back or both? and is it for your eddy or just any mk5 in general? There all the same in principle anyway.

Hi Darren, front is of particular interest, but it would be good to see both, just for a regular GTI.
