Frequently Asked Questions
-
Does this part fit without any modifications?
Yes, it is a direct bolt-on
replacement for the original dog bone mount. -
Does this increase NVH (vibration/noise)?
A slight increase is normal, particularly at idle. Whilst driving, this is minimal. -
Is this suitable for DSG/Stronic and manual gearboxes?
Yes, for both transmission types. With DSG, the mount reduces wheel hop and clunking during gear changes. -
Do I need a wheel alignment or a tune after fitting?
No. Fitting is mechanical; no alignment or software is required. -
How long does installation take?
On average, 30–60 minutes on a hoist using standard tools.
