Hey All,
My trusty GTI is about to click over 100,000km and it's time to do some suspension work.
I've located a knocking coming from the front end when I'm driving over speed-bumps to the front strut top mounts - an easy fix. So I'm thinking if the struts need to come out, and I've done 100,000km, I would replace them.
Surprisingly, the lower control arm bushes are also torn and will need to be replaced. This was unexpected, but I'll replace them while I'm there.
The challenge is, I have the Sport button activated Electronic Dampening Control (EDC) and when searching for replacements front struts with this feature, I have come up with nothing.
I'm been trying different part suppliers, however having no luck. I do use the Sport feature a lot and would like to keep the active suspension.
The OEM part is 6C0.413.031BT
Has anyone else come across this issue? I'm open to suggestions on how to solve.
Thanks
