...to their A2? I've just taken delivery of a set to see what they're like. Dimensionally, they're spot on in all respects and the nuts/bolts being included in the box makes them a bit of a bargain, but the A2 isn't listed as compatible. Just about every other small Audi/VW etc is though. The rubber feels as though it's a bit firmer than the (original) bushes on my axle. Not sure if that's because they're supposed to be, or just because the latter have gone soft with age (and they do feel ssssoooofffftttt). There's no discernable cracking or perishing in the old ones and I'm not sure how best to get them out if I do decide to change them. Any suggestions? The Haynes manual for the Polo says something about VW using a slide hammer. It also shows a different spec of bush for "Polo GT" models.
