Having just replace the rear wisbone bushes on my polo 9n using this excellent guide I just though I post a couple of things for anyone else. 1. The 2 x 61 mm spacers fit in the console housing to centre the incomming bush. Obvious to many maybe but I struggled for 30 mins before I realised WHAT A NUMPTY I was being LOL 2. Another numpty moment here I didn't pack the gap between the 71mm spacer (which pushes in the bush) and the bush rubber. So all the force was on the nylon around the bush and guess what? Yep I split it!! Second attempt packed it with washers so some of the load went on the rubber too. Once I put my thinking head on it took about 1hr 30 per side and no proplems. The lubricant from vw was £8 but well worth it. £50 for the whole job inc the manual. The garage wanted £200 + Brilliant Post!!
