Re: my new first oct 1 help
Have a search for ARB bushes in this section, as these could also be your problem

Re: my new first oct 1 help
You can get them here for £20 each www.vwspares.co.uk with bushes installed. Made by Febi so I would imagine it's probably OEM but even if its not it will certainly be as good as OEM parts
