Audi TT wishbone bush too harsh ?
« on: 21 December 2012, 18:28 »
As above has anyone found the tt bush to be abit unforgiving ? I changed all bushes ect a fair while ago now and the tt bushes are still solid every dip/crack/stone in the road feels like a fooking mountain it was like that with both my joms and now my weitecs but before with the old bushes it had SOME comfort anyone else found this?

You need to have your wishbones level. Then your car will handle as well as it can. And the bush will in its natural position

The way you reply in most of your posts seems all to familier :undecided:

Im not sure what it is thats causing it to feel that way to be fair the front end in general feels harsh..... I dont want to go and put standard bushes in if its not going to help!

 :undecided: is that first comment aimed at me??  :undecided:

The front did feel stiff but for me the improved feedback was a good trade off  :smiley:
