I have to say this wasn't that big a shock after reading Rich's and others posts, the thing that is a shock is that both Audi and AmD have been asked to look at play / loose feeling in the steering in the last 5000 miles and neither mentioned the state of the bushes! I have however had a new ball joint (no difference) and a new track rod - helped.
I'm thinking of doing all 4 wishbone bushes myself and replacing them with the powerflex ones and probably do the Dog Bone one at the same time - Rich, you said it was a bit of a nightmare changing the bushes, was it just getting the old ones out or was it the bolts etc too?
I've read about there being updated wishbones for the S3 on later cars, is it worth getting the new wishbones and not going the powerflex route?
