A3 (8p) and MK5 Golf interchangable parts...?

[LSH]

Hi all, im hoping someone can help...

Can anyone confirm whether the suspension (Shocks & Springs) from a MK5 fit an A3 (8p)? (exactly the same engine - TDi 140)

Also, does anyone know whther the rear washer wiper motor from a MK5 will fit an A3 (8p)?

Many thanks,
Luke

Not sure about the suspension but, although the A3 is the same chassis, it is also a heavier car so will have different strength shockers and springs probably. May fit physically though.

As far as the rear wiper is concerned, if the washer turn with the wiper blade then it will fit, if the washer jet sprays in the same place then it is no good for the A3.
