j3rk Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Ok i don't know if any of you guys can point me in the right direction but i could do with a mechanic who can do a little work for me who can deal with a problem im having. After doing a little research i've come to the conclusion that my roll bar bushes are in need of replacing front and back. I say the front because if i go over speed bumps i get a creaking sound. It's not very loud and when i turn right it creaks also. On the back i get a kind of knocking sound if i go over any kind of pothole or uneven road. Like if the back wheel is bouncing in the chamber. Do you guys know anybody who may be able to do the work for me? I know some of you guys are quite mechanically minded and i'm still learning but not sure how to do this job myself. Although i've had to learn a lot in the 6 months of ownership of my 93 wrx i don't think i'm going to be able to do this one myself. If there is anybody out there who would like to do this for me for some cash please let me know. Thanks guys.

baser999 Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 He drives an Audi TT but don't let that put you off - he'll probably do your hair as well
20withascooby Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 deano all the way got mine booked in with him on the 23rd to hunt down sum funny noises i also have a annoying rattle like u have form the rear
j3rk Posted January 11, 2008 Author Posted January 11, 2008 (edited) Right, i've had a rethink today. Spoke to a few experts who own the same year and they say the same thing about the drop links and bushes. Have been told i'm better off replacing the lot with uprated stuff. Old standard stuff in need of replacing so may as well uprate it. Wish i could be uprated at times lol. Anyways have had a quote for £359 for a set of eibach anti bars front and rear with bushes and alloy whiteline drop links for the front and rear. Any good? Had a quick look underneath her earlier too and it doesn't look like a difficult job so i'm gonna do it myself. Sound reasonable? Just hope it cures the creaking and knockin sounds. Same sound my knees make everytime the scoob costs me dough! If no success...Deano ill be givin ya a shout matey Edited January 11, 2008 by j3rk
