Product Details
This Whiteline Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2015-2021 Volkswagen Golf/GTI. Chassis code: MQB. This part is for the front of the vehicle. Part number W53660. You receive 2 shell bushings.
Bushings work out of sight, but they decide how well a suspension holds its geometry. A soft or tired control arm bushing allows play that shows up as vague steering, a wandering feel under braking, or a clunk over bumps. Fitting a firmer one takes that slack out. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Expect a difficult job of about 4 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. To go with it on the Golf/GTI, see Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
