Knocking/Banging noise rear suspension ?

you can get ACC specific KW's but they're expensive

The KW shocks on that kit Neil had already been replaced once due the lower bushes separating from the shock body.

When I bought those I was a big KW fan, but having since had the same problem on my Mk5 track car on KW v3's and now having run the AST's for a few months I won't ever be buying KW again.

Having looked at the shocks today, you can see daylight through where the rubber sits in the metal ring on the bottom of the shocks, 
Not good, how old are they Steve was these off your mk5 or did you get them new for the mk6 ?

[SteveP]

New on the Mk6, have a word with Matt at VWR when he's back, he might be able to sort something out

No just got a new oem one to try and eliminate the problem, must have been a dodgy seal ?
