Just done this exactly as shown. When stationary or making slow speed turns, I'm just creaking/popping sounds, sounds as if the spring is binding. All mounts securely tightened and new top mount bearing and Bush used. I didn't adjust ride height whilst shock was on the car, could this be the spring moving not having enough preload on it?
THANKS SO MUCH. Service manual adds a lot of unnecessary procedures
funny title because the car is an VW Golf mk IV
Great video, straight forward, clear instructions and to the point!
its not as easy as it looks in this video 🙁
