hi everyone, this is the first time I get online to get some answers for my car... I have an 02 A6 3.0 for almost 3 years now and this is my first major problem that I experienced so far. Besides that anything works great. I looked under the car and it seems that my bushings are worn out.

My question is; can I replace just the bushing or I'm better off buying the Control Arms Kit and replace everything?
This would be what I found online so far http://www.fcpgroton.com/product-exe...ategory_id/181

It seems that my motor mounts are going bad too, are they hard to replace?

 

Engine mounts are not all that hard to replace and you need to buy the control arms.

 

Thank you, but unfortunatelly I already bought the bushings, would you think they're hard to change and use the same control arms?

My car is a 1998 A4 1.8T quattro (B5).

I had my car on the hoist and check out the 'clonking' noise coming from the front. It looks like my upper (at least) control arms are worn. I can wiggle the passenger side wheel quite a bit, the driver side also (a bit less).

What are my options?
- has anyone used the kit shown in above link? Are they any good?
- other kits?
- just the upper arms with bushings?
- just the upper arm busings?

Can some post link to instruction how to do the work?

Thanks.

 

Do some online research and pick up the entire A-arm assembly (including bushes) and either replace them.
