Title: WALK kit bushes worn out replacements??
Post by: vag12 on October 05, 2013, 01:44:09 pm: Just wondering if anyone can help me out? My car is stuck at r tech and can not be mapped as the walk kit bushes have worn causing excessive movement, does anyone know if the poly flex bushes will be a direct replacement and if so will the walk kit still keep the same characteristics it is meant to have?
Wanting to replace with these:
eBay part number:
110919910667

Thanks mate I have ordered from the eBay item number above so that should again do the job right? And do you know if the functions of the WALK kit will remain the same?

Can't I just get the polyurethane part which goes inside the part and insert in to the WALK brackets?

The standard superpro press in bush may not fit in the whiteline brackets. The press in bush isn't as strong as the full console.
