stuey 0 Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Thanks, the £220 is from C&R, which i do consider to be a bit up north! If a main dealer can do it for that i would save myself a lot of juice and time by going local. I suppose i can give a couple of dealers a ring, any other places anyone can recommend?

Pittuf 0 Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Dumb question time again....I take it we are talking about the trailing arm bushes here? !dodge I just had those done at John Austins VW and Audi Specialists, would have been 140 plus vat but I get a discount so it was 125 plus vat. The back end of the car is now definately alot stiffer over bumps, haven't really thrashed the car yet round corners, but due to the long list of handling related problems I had all at the same time its difficult to pinpoint exactly what has done what. %-6 Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rich 3 Posted September 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Got a quote from Stealth Racing today for the rear bushes. They said worst case would be 3 hours at £40/hr + £50 for the bushes. They dont use VAG ones though. Oh, + VAT on those prices too. So maximum £200. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rich 3 Posted October 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 Just got back today from Stealth. They did the rear bushes in 2 1/2 hours. They also greased up and tightend one of my rear bearings and altered the bracket on my BMC CDA as it was rattling. Grand total came to £162.09. :-)I think the 200 mile round trip was worth it as those guys really seem to know what they are doing.One happy customer. :-) Link to post Share on other sites
