Mk5 GTI suspension options

[brad]

So did you just buy the rubber insert? I have been searching EBay for Audi S3 LCA bushes and this is one that I came up with. I need to replace them on my wife's 125tdi Jetta but I want to upgrade. I assume they would be interchangeable with Golf GTI and therefore S3. I don't want to go to poly though. I tried to search the Febi number that you suggested but it doesn't look right. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks for your help.

That's the front bush. They usually last fairly well.

When installing new suspension into the golf/jetta do you need to replace strut tops and bearings too like mk4s? Going to be putting coils in my mrs jetta soon

I'm going to replace the bearing part. The Mk 5"s are different from the Mk 4's. You can buy the bearing separately from the rubber top section apparently.
