strut

Hi Guys & Gals, Today I fitted a strut brace to my Leon. It was real easy to do and took around 15 - 20 minutes. You don't need major mechanical skills to do this, just some tools. The tools I used were: 13mm sockets, 3/8 ratchet, 1/4 inch ratchet, a 1/4 inch driver and a 13mm spanner. Torque...

Ok so i know the ibiza's are known for their exessive play (around an inch ive heard) and my car is no different, however i believe a knocking/clunking noise i am hearing is coming from my top strut mounts, this had been the case since coilovers whent on a while back, with brand new top strut...

hi ive just brought a ibiza gti and it pulls across the road i noticed that the top strut mount rubbers where round the wrong way, so i changed them round, but then i noticed when you jack the car up the strut drops till the cup meets the turret is there a bush thats missing or do i need a...

hello right my rear coilovers damper bolt threaded. i have to hold the top of the coilover with a 7mm spanner then tighten up the lower bolt. Why is this? and because im trying to fit my rear strut brace it wont tighten up as when i just put a rachet and arm it just keeps turning...

It seems that I have a sticky strut top bearing. I'm going to be getting some coilovers soon, but was told that coilovers include a strut top bearing on them - is this true?? Would save me having to buy new ones! Thanks Chris :)

Im currently doing my front suspension but i cant get the drivers side Strut out.. the top nut is off and so is the arb bolt along with the Hub bolt now i cant push it down as the drive shaft it touching the wishbone bracket and the strut wont go up any more as its hitting the under side of...

As per title,am fitting my S3 upper strut brace later,do i NEED to torque the bolts down or just make sure they're nice and tight,(don't have torque wrench but could get hold of one)reason i ask is some of the posts about it mention torquing and others don't.

Has anyone got a front and rear strut brace on their FR 150 (old shape)? If so, what difference does it make? Also, can you get a rear one which doesn't take up space in the boot? I am finding my car could do with a little rigidity sometimes!!:D

im looking into upgrading my suspension to a set of AP coilovers and ive noticed there are 2 different strut diameters for the Leon. 50mm and 55mm. how do you know which one you car has? my car is just a standard 1.9tdi stylance, nothing fancy like dsg or anything like that

Couldn't see a fitting guide in the Info Base, so can anyone advise where the rear upper strut brace mounts to? Do I need to drill new holes in the metal to bolt it in? Thanks all
