Big Problems

[Bug_racer]

pull the whole linkage out and push the ball and socket in properly in a vice , Ive tried doing it on the car and sometimes it pops out after a few k's . The shaft comes out towards the back end of the car , its tricky but worth doing it the long way

This bush cannot be inserted fully in the vehicle, it must be pressed in with a vice, When i did mine( and it is a bugger of a job) i also had to realign the neutral position afterward.

ok in the end i found out that the mechanic that worked on it has no idea about working on vw. the ball joint socket is fine, so ended up getting 1-4 back but only just. the friend is gonna take it to proper vw mechanic and get it sorted.

Thanks for continued replies
