Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Same way as any other make be it Nissan Toyota Holden Ford etc. -
Pretty simple, just remove bolts 1, 17, 19 and 23, (look at image) and with a bit of fiddling it should come out.
Hardest part is pushing out the old bushing and pushing in the new one!
Re torque bolts;
-1 to 35nm
-17 to 50nm
-19 to 70nm
- and 23 to 25nm
and you should be good! hope this helpedComment

If its a VR6 you will need to release the engine mounts and jack the engine up to get the main bolt out on the right hand side. In typical VW fashion, its too long and hits the sump before you can get it out.Current: 2007 Black Magic GTI - APR Stage 2, Carbonio intake, APR downpipe and catback exhaust, RNS510, Bi-Xenons, Custom Red Leather Interior, Tow Bar, Racks and Parking Sensors
