about £170 for all the bushes listed (minus the dog bone mount which ive had done) + labour @£42 a hour = :sick:
but i really need them doing as she handle's like a shopping trolley on the faster/tighter parts of my trip up n down the A303.
any preferance on which would be best to do first or just bit the bullet n do em all?
my 1st month of getting 'golf+' on subscription n it had this guide in it-timing eh?
and i want a 008p :undecided:

Rear axle ones are a pain. Probably easier to whip the carriers off with the caliper and do it on the bench. Certainly not a easy task with the car on the drive with no burning gear and having only a G-Clamp to try push a new bush in there.

no burning gear needed... i did mine on with the axle on the car.. i used an SDS hammer chisel and they flew out! i made my own puller with threaded rod and box section to pull the new ones in!
