:)Hi, My bug really does have a fist and teeth clutching sweak when she hits a lump in the road, (not a pot hole) I managed to avoid these. I think it's coming from the back right wheel but maybe left I can't pin point it.
She has 18" RS4 alloys, you can feel every bump in the road which I'm really not used to coming from a honda civic with 13" wheels.
She seems quite bouncy as well, my honda must of had a stiffer suspension. Any ideas it really is a horrible sweak.
Thanks . ..

My Bug's boucy too :D I think it's cos it needs new shocks at some point tho....
Is the squeek coming from the mechanicals or interior? I know a few people have had problems with their rear seat squeeking.
My front seats squeek - drives me mad!

Noodle squeeks alot, like at low speed if you went over a dip in the road, he would creak and the front suspension would clunk.
I took it to the garage though and apparently the front anti-roll bar bushes are buggered, so they have replaced them, hopefully now he wont bloody clunk anymore! :D :D

:) Hi, the squeak is definately from the mechanics. If I hit a bump with both wheels, no sweak it's only if the right side hits the bump, and i think. . it's the front right wheel now.
Anyway, I now have her booked into VW for the middle of Aug, MOT is due 1st sept, so I thought they could have a good look.
Thanks
