    Suspension arms?

    On full lock, I have noticed a definite "dragging" of nearside wheel across the road - could this be a result of worn suspension arm bushes? I am planning to replace anyway, but confirmation of problem would be good. Thanks, Tim.

    A4 B5 door builds

    Thanks for the reply, but not 100% certain what you mean - you say if auto acoustics or jehnert - do you mean buy them then take to Source to fit properly or are you saying they are not worth getting and just ask Source to make new custom builds?
