Hi folks, There's been some recent "clunking" coming from my RF wheel well, along with a little bit of a right hand pull in the steering. On inspection today, I found some vertical play in that wheel, along with that self-same clunk. It looks like the play and the noise is at the forward control arm bushing. In the Bentley, there's talk of spot welding and press-fitting new bushings, Haynes calls for a trip to VW. I'm figuring that this is not curbside work, if only because it's alignment related, but I wanted to be sure I'm interpreting this right. Happy New Year, and thanks, Matt Sutton 88 GL Brooklyn NY |
