Well as I guessed, springs and bushes/top mounts changed and rack still noisey!!!

So back to the stealers for more diagnosis, at this rate I will have a new front end before they decide to change the rack...only got 10 months till the warranty is out, so better keep on the case  :cool:

Well, new track rod ends, and another set of springs, torqued to a new procedure thats been released by VW..............noise still there  :sick:

Will not accept the rack is at fault, so goes back in December for a part by part change on the front suspension until they hit the problem....still putting my money on the rack   :wink:
