I'm going to gaz on Monday to get my poly bushes fitted on front wishbones I hope they make a difference, anyone else fitted them?

It's not the squeak you want to worry about, the poly bushes don't deteriorate half as quick as OEM ones so you shouldn't have to replace them anytime soon. Mine had all sorts of play in them before I noticed they were screwed. When I let off of the accelerator you could hear them actually rocking back and forth!

Yes it's a mk5 06 but apparently tge suffrage has to be dropped cause of a bolt in the way gaz was saying, so if. It doesn't for just tge rear bushes to be done tgen would it be OK to get just the rear bushes replaced

Just left gaz with my car, the rear wishbone bush housing bolts seem very stiff with possibly snapping, he's already got his finger cut

I'm doing the rear myself getting new arms then put tge poly bushes in ready to fit, is it worth getting adjustable camber arms to stop inside tyres wearing quickly

Done the fronts on my mkv with superpro and no noticeable difference in comfort but felt tighter, old bushes are probably not the best comparison. Yes and the subframe needs dropped as iirc the bolts on the fronts fowl the gearbox, bad design really.
