Hi all

Positives:

* No wheel hop
* The front end feels more planted (dog bone bushes combined with my new Eibach ARB's lol).
* Seems to...

Hi Guy's,
I fitted my Powerlex DBM today but I think I have made a boo boo!
I have torqued the 'clamp' bolt to 40Nm, which I think is too much as the vibrations through the car are bad, liveable maybe, but bad!
The good thing is that the traction is a 125% better!:D
What I need an...

2. Whats the cost and who sells them? My car is a Leon FR TDI
Thanks,

Does the vibration ease and if so after around how...
