    Visually subframe bushes look good, but used a crowbar and there is quite some movement there so next on the list will be Albert solid bushes.

    How much am I looking at to powder coat front subframe?

    Are the shocks locked up properly in the struts? Although if not I think you would hear it under driving.

    Track rod ends are new, ball joints are new, subframe bushes are good, shock absorbers are new, top mounts are new. There are no knocking anywhere from the suspension at all.

    That video was taken when had old shocks and bushes etc. But even now when I did all front suspension it still does that. I'm 100% everything is tightened.

    Is this movement OK? All bushes and stuff are new/in good condition.

    Forgot to mention, I have also fitted 5mm led in each of the door handles and we connected to the interior lights. So now when car is unlocked led comes on and illuminates handles

    I'll try and make video of how it looks

    Next job is a timer circuit so I can make side lights to come on when car is unlocked

    I did what I should've done at the start and bought pair of B6 Bilsteins. Because I didn't want to go through all the work to take struts off, with help from dad (it was mostly dad's work to be honest ) we made a tool that works same as original Audi tool but for B6's (makes things incredibly easy)

    Yet to test drive her but I am 100% it'll be better than it came out of factory


    So your done now and my Audi tool arrived today?

    Love the look of that homemade Bilstein tool,what tool did you use the other end to make it work?
