  • R32 knocking in front

    I've been fixing up a cheap R32 I brought. Previously massive knocking whilst driving. Replaced the front drop links that were worn and that has removed about 80% of the knocking noise but there is still a knocking noise which seems to be coming from the front centre of the vehicle.

    It's a similar knocking sound so assuming it's a bad bushing somewhere. My next guess is it could be worn bushings on the front sway bar? Any suggestions?

    Engine mount perhaps, Google VW Dog Bone Mount, there's a list of symptoms and description of problems related to the mount. Cheers-John

      Thanks for your response. I actually went to install a Whiteline dog bone mount today but one of the bolts rounded so couldn't get it out, need to get an extraction kit. Will try installing the new mount next week and see if it makes a difference.
