if you can modify the need to maintain out, that's all good also! ;) Especially when it involves suspension stuff :evil:

And that would be why they use rubber as stock :roll: :lol: poly is a performance upgrade and it needs a little care to stay a performance upgrade. If you want to not do any maintenance then refit OEM rubber.
imho
:P

yeah new rubber would be a massive improvement over original to the car. they say the only thing you can really feel the difference on a three year old car and a brand new one now is the bushes. everything else will feel pretty much as it did new. The missis audi feels like it did the first day I drove it two years and 100,000 miles later.
